How does the little lady feel about all those mods

Oh we haven't had that discussion yet.

I will need to get the Buell pillion saddle, the thick one. The stock one is well...not much thicker than a paper towel.

Man! Thats just wrong...:spank:

Well I'm sure if you didn't, some other a$$crack Harley Rider did at sometime! (Not being too stereotypical.)

But back to the point, very cool Hellgate, I'm happy you got your Buell. Just curious if you bought it in central florida or elsewhere? David is da man for checking it out for you even if he may have made Harley sounds on your seat!

me thinks the bike will look great after removing those shrouds..

That's where the radiators are. I don't think you could remove them.

Oh I agree, the pods can't come off. Well they can but the bike would run hotter. They don't look as bad in person. The lens of the camera tends to distort the size.

I WANT MY BIKE!!!!!!

Okay I'm sounding like a spoiled kid here...:Flash:

I bought it from Ocala HD, very nice and very professional. The transaction was smooth as silk.

It was cheaper to have it shipped than buy one here in TX. Just have to wait. :banghead:

I know, I know...I'm very vocal about the HD culture and that will not change however I've always been intrigued by Buell. I like the true independent nature of the company and the out of the box thinking. I will admit some of the out of the box was necessitated by the HD lump of a power plant to get the CG low enough to have a sporty bike. Much of those ideas really aren't needed with the new motor. But it is very unique and that is something I've always enjoyed regardless of what it is in my life, an underdog if you will.

[Hellgate]

$600, not too bad

Because you are the only one who knows....(well there is a few others) can you sit on a FZ6 and make Buell noises?

It will at least help pass the time!

Yes. Me too. I'm impatient...

Oh you guys aren't going to believe this one. I got a call this morning from the shipping company at 0800. I'm thinking woo hoo they are arriving early. WRONG!!!! So wrong. The delivery truck blew a turbo charger in San Antonio and it will take ALL day today to make the repair. UUUGGHHHH!!!! So tomorrow is now the delivery day. I could just scream.

 

[Stumbles06]

Aww Pete, That's rough.

Another day of biting the finger-nails... Waiting, Waiting.

Hope the delivery guys don't run into any more trouble, that sucks.

Aw, man! That truly stinks! It's almost like being a kid, waking up on Christmas morning, only to find out that Santa didn't leave any presents because one of his reindeer got shot by a hunter. I hope it get in early tomorrow. Got my fingers crossed for you.
