While our Buells are "Different", so are many other designs. I am always interested in the many ways there are to build a bike. Here is a bike that was marketed for two years (93 and 94) in the USA. Do you recognize it?

It didn't handle that well, and was aimed at the wrong market segment. All the magazines loved it, but the buying public thought otherwise. It belongs in the same category as the Suzuki Tempter and the Honda Pacific Coast.

Hey! I had one of those! The GTS was an awesome bike, too bad it was about 600 pounds plus!(no sh*t) Brakes were phenomenal.

Glad I got one! They are a great bike, and I use mine for LD riding. They are getting harder to find though. Strange sensation, once you turn it into a turn, there's no more effort needed to keep turning! I've held off some of the more serious knee-draggers with this thing. Love that 5-valve genesis motor!
