Now that is a HARLEY-DAVIDSON Riders mentality of what a BUELL should look like as close to a SPORTSTER as they could get it !!!

Thats cheep, and you could have a nice M2 for just about 2g's. Good deal i say, if it was closer i would consider it.I take that back, if it was closer i would buy it.

If you want a sportster, buy a sportster. He turned a nice bike into a fugly wheel barrow.

He probably built the only Buell that a standard Sportster could run away from in the twisties.

Technically, for a while, used sporsters were more costly than new buells.

I'll wager that he wanted a big twin bagger and took the cheapest way out he could find.

Only needs headlight and new forks?

SuperGlide shocks??

But, asking $1500. Possibly out the door for less ...

I think "super glide" possibly refers to the front end.?!? Does not list mileage, but says it "runs great" if it was pre-99 I would have been to the motor city and back already!

Either way it's a potential steal.

There are M2s out for slightly over $2K. I wouldn't even consider this worth buying for $1K unless somebody really needs the drivetrain only. Turning this back into a Buell would be like doing charity work.

Regarding my original post. For some reason it just reminds me of one of those electric carts that fat people cruise around in.
