Re: Buell owners... Accepted by Harley riders?
I am a Harley rider. Yeah, I know. I am one tough son of a gun.
 I accept Harleys, Buells, Victorys, Titans, Big Dogs, no OCC please, any of the metric bikes, scooters, powered skateboards and a few brands of rollerblades. I even accept Sportsters, perish the thought. I do not understand the problem. Why do we all try so hard to elevate ourselves above others by alienating them? If they are out in the fresh air riding they are good people. To denigrate them because they don't ride a Harley just enforces bad feelings between the groups. That is one thing we do not need.

Now, now Gasbag - don't get your tassles in a twist about Sporties.  You're quite right about getting out there on a bike. Doesn't matter what it is - we're all brothers and sisters under the sky, enjoying the ride and feeling the wind. I can, however, understand people having a big loyalty to a brand when it means home employment and national revenue rather than profits or wages going overseas. Mind you, I'm British and I still ride a Harley. Better get a Triumph next time

Re: Buell owners... Accepted by Harley riders?
I own a buell myself and although they are ment to be used in corners. people still wave to me. they don't wave asmuch though. you should try to find a buell ridding group. it will make you feel more wanted in the sport bike world. most sportbike groups will ride with you too. slthough it is more fun in a buell goup cuz they know what your bike is more capable of. that and they can help with tuning and ridding stradigies more.

Re: Buell owners... Accepted by Harley riders?
Read today on the net that MoCo is stopping production of Buells and there are big question marks about MV Augusta.
Harley-Davidson net income falls 84% - MarketWatch Difficult times......  My sympathies go to all those Buell employees and their families who are or will be affected by job losses, for what it's worth saying. Hope something else comes along for them soon. |
