Why I do/don't ride a Buell: |
The Ulysses is a good all around bike and has more character than the Suzuki V-strom. I can ride with my BMW and Harley buddies without taking much grief. Also hangs with sport bikes in the turns.
|
How can Buell improve their motorcycles?: |
LESS HEAT from right side of bike.
LESS ANNOYING electric fan that seems to run way too much.
More top end power.
