No, this isn't me nor am I affiliated in any way with this company, but if it's true, then this could be one of those unbelievable deals of the century. Not sure if it's still available or any details, but one of my younger brothers sent this to me since I own a Buell. Seemed like it was worth passing along as a good find for someone who's looking for one of these.

Bike has been for sale for a while. I think 1313 went and checked it out one time. From what I remember he said it was a pretty nice piece.

I contacted the owner after I first saw it on a poker run, and he even listed it on the BadWeB classifieds before.

I walked up to it and was amazed how nice it was and then started to look at the details - paint marks that usually get worn off/washed off still present, brake rotors only have the wear from rolls test, and on and on. Despite all the naysayers in the classifieds post, yes, this bike is the real deal - a brand new, unused 1998 S1W.

And he's come down on his price some,

well there is another beautiful Buell out there in Wisconsin. A friend sent me the link and I tried to trade my ULY for it, but the deal fell through. On the web site the owner asks too much money. She wants 6 grand for it. She was the only owner, rode 624 miles on it, all her miles, and then kept it in her garage until now. I wanted it SO BAD! but she wouldn't agree to just trade titles then find a buyer for the ULY. If she would have done that I would have had a brand new S3T here is the link

unbelievable!
this would be a fine collector piece, but I ask: who would be so crazy to have such a wonderful bike in his garage and not use it to keep it in mint condition for the collector standards????

The owner lost interest in riding when she started her own garden business, and , so I'm told, is the daughter of the HD dealer where her bike is at now. She is getting ready to take the bike off of consignment there. She needs cash now to pay rent on a bldg. one of the reasons the deal fell through. I wanted that bike BAD! It is so pretty!
