How long have you had your Buell?
What model?
What's the mileage?

Ricky asked:

Had the buell for 3 seasons, I have an 02 cyclone, that has an X1 front end and modified rear tail. Has about 8500 miles. I mostly ride the buell when I'm riding by myself. When I'm riding with others I ride the flht.

I can't stand seeing Buells Suck everytime I'm in this forum either. Moderators should eliminate that thread.

Looks like Buells aren't the only ones with issues.

What issues?

I don't have one but I spent the other evening with about 40 guys thrashing Buells around Silverstone race track. Apart from the 2 that got dropped ncluding one wiseguy who tried to outbrake me into a bend and went past apex on his backside there were no mechanical issues and considering the abuse the bikes took I was quite impressed. Fun to ride too.

I personally had a '99 X1 Lightning. Loved it! Sold it to my brother, he still rides it. Had a few things go bad on it. Mostly common stuff, like the rear shock, leaky primary, and broke a belt once. Overall I loved it and so does my brother!
