I'm just thinking that they have such a small share of total bike sales that their network couldn't be as good as others. I don't really know, I don't know anyone that owns a triumph to ask about parts availability.

I think I like you. :)

Plus, they have fuel injection this year on the Triumphs

http://www.buell.com/en_ca/bikes/street/XB12Scg/ It's two inches lower just for short people like you! lol

And I do believe they used to make a 984cc version that you could likely pick up fairly cheap.

Then there's the lack of maintenance. No chain to lube or replace, no valve adjustments, no coolant to flush or worry about.

Makes most of it's power where you need it. And it'd be fairly cheap...

when they first came out with these I really liked them, not so much any more. the guys I knew that switched from UJM to Buell have all switched back.

My bad. They only make the 1200. But, it's a very managable 100hp. And with you on it, you'd never have to replace the front tire.

I'm with Tmall....BUELL!!!!

I like the look of that Buell WAY better over the Kawi. I think the Kawi is a wee bit on the ugly side. :idk:

That bike keeps getting put on the list and then getting taken off. :lol: I can't decide if I like it or not. :lol:
