A Buell. "what's A Buell?" The bike I have. "who makes it?" Buell. I've had this convo more times than I care to remember. The only answer that ever ends it is "it's a sport bike with a H.D. engine. By the way I hate that answer...So how do you guys answer?

Most of the time people that walk up know what it is but have never seen one before . I usually tell them it is the only one I have seen too. I actually passed another red firebolt the other day , we both stopped and said the same thing"that's the only other bike like mine I have ever seen" HA

The next question I usually get is:

"How big is that engine?"

Me:

"60 cubic inch."

Long pause, then:

"Huh?"

Priceless.

I get tired of mine getting called a crotch rocket and a rice rocket too. Lately I correct them and tell them that it`s a wheat rocket and they usually don`t know what to think after that.

"Here's my card, come see me for a demo"

Best advertisement for the bike, I dont know how many I have sold just from riding this damn thing around town, out in the hills, out to local eateries and the errant 'bike nite'.
Free to use, spread the love.

Wouldn't cheese rocket be more accurate ? Has anyone noticed that the brothers like to call it a Breull ? Or is that just a local thing for the NYC area ?

"Why would you even want to ride one of those?"
"Because I don't need one of THOSE to make my dick bigger"

My favorite is when one of the "posers" on a fake (jap) cruiser yells out "Get a Harley"
