Check out all the photos, it was a good effort!

1 less Buell on the roads i guess.

They called it a high performance bike......

That's in reference to the performance of how far off the ground it launched itself

Gold!

So many buell haters lol the only thing wrong with them is the dinosaur motor they used to propel them

Got a mate with a shit hot X1 Lightning...only coz he made it so. Standard it was shit- like riding a VW beetle. Now with big bore kit, race ecu, exhaust and all the bullshit it should have had from the factory it is pretty kewl.

I was hoping you would chime in with something about your mates Buell

I have seen this very Buell in action and I can tell you all right now - in the right hands, these things are an absolute weapon. Tony's mates bike does have some good mods, but the fact that its powered by a Milwaukee V-twin makes no difference in the real world. These bikes are way smaller in the flesh than you would think, and can be punted with extreme ferocity !!

Great shot of the bike in the tree, it must have cartwheeled and bounced quite magestically to get that high

My old man had the cyclone M2.
Stock it was a c$$t of a thing, 5200rpm redline.
Race kit ignition let it go to 8k, but he used to stop revvin at it 7k.
Had carb kit diff intake, exhaust and tuned up good.
Was a right beast, I was only 16 at the time. But he used to let me take it round the block. My mates were suitably impressed with my wheelies.

But dad was never too impressed coz he could hear me the whole way...

Mate I often looked at Buells - the good ones - and have thought more than once - I really should think about getting one of those into the 4th.....it may still happen one day

But it is a play-bike only......great fun on weekends

Nothing sounds the same as a good cam in a hard revvin HD engine.

Respect..

Holy fuck

good effort!!!

Haha legend... That's one hell of a mistake...
