Nope! Buell riders seem to hang out together...especially the earlier generations. Harley riders didn't want them and they generally got left behind by other sport bike riders. Sure the word "image" may have been "ill chosen" but my main point was "lifestyle"... Oh and almost every part on my bike has a purpose. The Jordan scheme was strictly a style preference like painting it an ugly industrial gray would be..... I didn't buy my bike for image, I bought it for it's performance and the fact that I had 3 Suzuki's previously with ZERO problems and only 2 goofy recalls unlike some brands....

Seriously, probably not but Buell riders are more of a "cult"/lifestyle type rider, kinda like Harley guys. Facts and figures mean nothing to them. It's all about image and belonging to a group....

Oh suck my cock Marko! They have not been manufacturing Buells since 1983! If you're going to measure from prototype/idea stage, then I guess the GSXR is on about 40 or 50 years old since Suzuki has been building race bikes from the beginning.... Jesus, why don't you measure it from when Erik was born while you're at it and celebrate it like Christmas! You could all put up American trees made in Austria and China and give each other presents wrapped in recall notices.

Right now I'm talking to a guy from back home that I know personally. I'm just about done with the whole idea... it was an impulse purchase anyway.
