Me too. They had the black b/c they already sold the orange.

I'm still on the fence about it. I did see one last fall (yes before they were sold here but I work in Milw) come up behind me and then pass. Looks very nice on the road and seemed to handle the curves we were on very nicely. BTW at that time I was riding the CBR600.
Harley must pay their fines if they get 'em (probably not) because I wasn't going slow and he was out of sight in no time.
Seen one the other day in the dealer and it didn't call out to me to be sat on. Maybe next time I'm there I'll grab a seat just to check it out.

They do some minor mods to them and race them in a cup series in Europe, they run alongside a Superduke cup, BOTH of which must absolutely kick ass and makes "Daytona Superbike" look like a fucking joke. If I was going to get a hog it'd be that one, and I'd need to have enough money to buy the race kit so I could do trackdays on it. It's one of Harleys better bikes, I am also surprisingly impressed by the V-Rod, I rode one for the first time last week.

I'm not gonna go that far. I'd get it as a 2nd bike....but I wouldn't trade the Buell.

I love this bike. My brother is seriously considering one. I saw one in a a magazine with high mounted termi's on it. Looked great.
