when your on vacation in Taos, and your wife sez "that's the 12th time in the last hour you've said we aren't comin back here without bikes . . . ." if you're really lucky, she's smilin when she sez it, cuz she wants her bike too | ||

you have multiple vehicles that only get used when it snows hard, or you need groceries or parts too big to carry on the bike. if the bike starts, it's not too cold to ride. you KNOW what size wrench fits each fastener and can tell them by feel alone (kinda like field stripping a rifle blindfolded). the routes you take are chosen for optimal curve content, no matter what the distance. S1's still rule, but damn, rc51's are nice | ||

When driving your car/truck you stop at a stoplight and start looking for the neutral light. Seriously, I just did this today. I hadn't had my truck out of the garage in over a month. It was just raining too hard this morning to take the Buell.  | ||

1 A greasy/oily service manual 2 Oil stains on your living room/ kitchen floor 3 Rubber stripes in your driveway 4 Your neighbors have never seen your front tire touching the ground unless parked 5 You rush to the window when you hear another bike as if someone is challenging you to a duel 6 You have a book mark folder, "Buell Stuff", with more links than your entire collection of "Other Stuff". 7 You speak in acronyms-IE: I need a race ECM if im going to LSR, I'll call ASB. Then to H-D to reset my TPS or my Buell will Run AFU. 8 You buy your wife gifts with Buell logos 9 Your wife replies to Buell gifts, "But I don't own a Buell". You gladly take ownership of said gifts 10 You have Big list of Buell gifts your wife will NEVER IN HELL buy for you. | ||

You know you own a Buell when you take your favorite curved exit ramp off the freeway in the car and your tires are squealling like hell. Your wife in the car asks, "How fast do you take this ramp on the motorcycle." You reply as you look down at the car speedometer, "Usually 10 mph faster" Her jaw drops. | ||

Remind me to tell you about the test ride in the Mini Cooper by BMW. I think it's about as close to a Buellized car as you can get, at least it was fun. The passenger in the back did let out a few screams though. Salescritter:"Take this next offramp and don't slow down and don't use the brakes". Me: "Okay". Backseat about halfway through the chicane:"Eeeek".  My next car if I can afford a new one. | ||

Mikej Living, as we do, in what can be part of the great white north (not lately though), I'd add to the list of cars you might consider . . .. the Sub WRX is a gas . . .. .damn near as much HP as my Mustang, less weight, all wheel drive . . . . . rallye cars are GREAT! off topic . . . .sorry ;-{ | ||

When the group of Harleys completely ignore you until you blip the throttle and prove that your bike's just as loud as theirs. | ||
| Rick_A |
When tools are the priority on long distance rides | ||
| Spiderman |
When you ride 500 miles through the rain just to hang with 70 plus Buellers in the Poconos. When you can sit, talk and drink beers for hours with a Buell rider you never met before. When you start to recognize fellow Buellers from other BRAG events. When you know every recall Buell has ever put out and can tell fellow Buell riders out in the parking lot over a few beers. Leagal notice: Beers and riding were never mixed at the Pocono event. | ||

...and thanks for that recall info Spidey, the dealer says he will check into it. Todd | ||

Glad to hear it  | ||

When you tell your girl that if it came down to it, you'd sell her for parts  I'm very grateful she has a good sense of humor! | ||

You know you own a Buell when... you unexpectedly grind a peg through an intersection and loft the front through another. (that was Thursday after not riding for two weeks) You know you own a Buell when... your left saddle bag latch breaks (bad metal), you've got to drill in and utilize a coat hanger for entry. You know you own a Buell when... your side stand switch decides to take a crap -- fortunately, you carry a spare & tools. You know you own a Buell when... your latch breaks & your side stand switch go on the same day. You know you own a Buell when... you say to yourself, 'man I need a second bike' and you wish Mr. Buell & Co. would build a new tourer before you have to look elsewhere. July, right?? Steve(2) | ||

.....every other bike you see looks like so much plain vanilla | ||

The word 'Cecil' replaces the other well know fu*k word. Like in mothercecil!. Or cecil me! Or I'll cecil you up man! Or your partner says 'Cecil me baby, cecil me hard!' | ||
| Darthane |
Okay, Budo, that was funny until the last one, and then just wrong. Just plain wrong, man. ::shudders:: | ||

You know you own a Buell when.......small boys wave at you, good looking women ask you to father their children, dogs run for cover when you pass, car alarms go off as you pass in salute to you, groups of nuns clutch their rosary beads, gas-station attendants offer to wash your helmet visor, other motorcyclists (with Ja*anes* bikes) look enviously in your direction, Porsche owners pull over when you come up behind them and you grow 6 inches taller overnight......well that was what the guy in the Harley dealership told me when I bought mine........I think they were pulling my chain on the 6 inches bit though..... | ||

you know you own a buell when: 1-you sit through physics class pondering acceleration rates and the true fulcrum point for the optimal wheelie. 2-you sit through chemistry class pondering stoichiometric air-fuel ratios and heat and energy transfers under WFO 3-while everyone else in the dorm downloads porn, you drool over buell stories and parts 4-when you are surrounded by gorgeous co-eds and you talk to the one you think would look best on the back of your bike 5-your girlfriend is giving you head and you suddenly remember when you were on spring break doing wheelies in front of a crowd of hundreds, getting flashed by dozens, and watching the crotch rockets cower as you unleash the thunderous hell that is your exhaust note, and you come quicker. 6-you make the three hour drive home just so you can ride for an hour, then drive three back. this college this is putting a damper on my riding.

You know a Buell when... You know you can either afford private schools for your two boys, or dirt bikes for them, but not both. You spend a lot of time thinking which would ultimately give them the greater life skills. | ||
| Spiderman |
Go dirt bikes | ||
| Shot_Gun |
I just did this today... When you fill up on fuel in your truck and reset your tripmeter. | ||
| Rick_A |
When you've got the only other Buell amist a sea of Harleys at your local dealerships get-together...and the only one in full gear. I don't see how people can feel safe in nothing but a leather vest, bandana, and dark sunglasses. At least boots and jeans are fashionable. | ||

You have Modesto Buell/Ducati's number on speed dail |
