You know you own a Buell when: Instead of installing an engine temp gauge - you ride with a meat thermometer jabbed in your right thigh...

Buells are slow above 100...when acceleration really sloooows...but below that I couldn't call it slow. Keep the throttle to the stop and you can lift the front wheel up through 3rd gear. What more do ya need? A little more power would be nice, though...

Its the usable power on the tight twisty roads that I like. Sometimes I will ride with the sportbikers and the boys are all over the gears always trying to ride the bits out of them. The S1 just powers its way through, now when we get to the real long straights they usually pull away when we get to about 210kph.

Today coming back from the Buell shop, from a pick-me-up truck with a Harley decal on the back window -
"Hey, nice bike, is it Italian?"
Nope - made in Wisconsin.
"Really? Where do they sell those?"

Yeah, you know you own a Buell when you pull up to a Harley dealer and as your getting off your bike one of the local 'faithful' comes by and loudly states how they shouldn't allow them Jap Crap to even come to a 'Real Motorcycle' dealership. Two minutes later he was complaining to the clerk behind the register about Japanese bike riders shopping at Harley dealers.

I'm sure he was a long time Harley rider and lived and breathed everything from 'The Motor Company' .. Funnier still, one of the salesmen wished his dealer sold Buells.. He really liked my bike. Just one of those things..

Later..

You know you own a Buell when you sell it and it feels like breaking up with your girlfriend (or boyfriend I guess . . . but I wouldn't know about that). It's not like you set out to leave her either, you just started looking at all those sexy italian women in the magazines and got the idea in your head that you could do better. You'd take her back now if you could but no, you've already rejected her. It just wouldn't be the same.

(wow, that was wierd)

Stubby, I've run across that too.

Makes ya wonder how they feel about the "girls" bike being faster and the fact that many don't have the ability to ride a "girls" bike properly.

Why bikes are better than Women...


Bikes don't get pregnant.

You can ride your Bike any time of the month.

Bikes don't have parents.

Bikes don't whine unless something is really wrong.

Bikes don't care how many other Bikes you've ridden.

When riding, you and your Bike can arrive at the same time.

Bikes don't care how many other Bikes you have.

Bikes don't care if you look at other Bikes.

Bikes don't care if you look at Bike magazines.

You'll never hear, "Surprise, you are going to own a new Bike" unless you go out to buy one yourself.

If your Bike is too loose you can tighten it.

You don't have to be jealous of the guy who works on your Bike.

If you say bad things to your Bike, you don't have to apologize before you ride it again.

You can ride your Bike as long as you want and it won't get sore.

You can stop riding your Bike as soon as you want and it won't get frustrated.

Bikes don't get headaches.

Bikes don't insult you if you're a bad rider.

Your Bike never wants a night out with the other Bikes.

Bikes don't care if you're late.

You don't have to take a shower before you ride your bike.

If your Bike doesn't look good you can paint it or get new chrome parts.

You can ride your Bike the first time you meet it, without having to take it to dinner, see a movie, or meet its mother.

The only protection you might have to wear when riding your Bike is a helmet.

When in mixed company, you can talk about what a great ride you had the last time you were on your Bike.

I can't wait to see Charlotte's Comments on that One!!!!!!
