Yeah, ummm, I miss my Buell. So I bought a 02 xr50 and customized it out for parking lot wheelies on a budget. Ostrich skin seat, free set of orange sherbert looking plastics, pro taper kit, street tires. I etched the graphics on today with flat black and some carefully cut out images I printed straight from the web. It is easy to balance in a wheelie, gets 100mpg, and has a top speed of about 35 downhill. Makes me think of a blast! Haha, jk.

I will have a S2 one day. And by one day I mean within a year. Just taking a vacation from too many large expensive toys to buy a house this winter.

The official name of this girl is OSD. Orange Sherbert Death.

SWEET! Just in time for Halloween. You should be able to do some serious speed trick or treating and beat all the neighborhood kids to the good candy. LOL

Sweet bike Matt. Glad to see you're still having fun. If you get an S2 before May, you should try to make it to the Texas S2 Step ( http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/messages/476 23/497109.html?1253948740 )

Kalali, this baby will wheelie sitting down or standing up in 3rd gear, no clutch : ) haha

I would go trick or treating, but there is something about a 260 pound man running around on a mini bike in a costume that may cause some parents to call the cops.....

If I have one by then Phelan, I wll try my hardest. I've always loved the S2. Dunno why. I guess its the versatility.

I had to google it but I agree, worse things have been hunt and pecked on here before. It may have gotten a rise out of a thin skinned inhabitant though. As long as your knees are in the breeze though right?
