That pipe is fucking gorgeous.

Hrm.. a Harley motor in a vaguely sport-like frame... now where have I seen that design before?

:whistle:

*and yes, it looks good

Dnyce 04-19-2011 01:54 AM

See, that's just it. I know I'll get flamed for saying this, but Erik's shit almost always looked like fucking ass. It may have worked ok, but it sure wasn't sexy.

This thing is dead sexy, and that pipe is fucking ridiculous.

Yeah, well, you know, that's just, like, your opinion, man.

:lol:

Some of it worked for me, some didn't. The image you posted is of something more custom than Buell was ever going to be able to market, and actually quite reminiscent of the Ecosse Heretic.

Kind of makes you wonder who helped develop it since they kicked Eric Buell to the curb.

wildchild 04-19-2011 08:36 AM

actually it looks vaguely reminiscent of the xr1200 but way more custom. dual carbs, old school oil bag, right hand drive chain, very interesting look. I'd ride it.

While I will certainly agree that Buell's are not the sexiest bikes on the road I will take the looks of my bike over that any day.

wildchild 04-19-2011 10:16 AM

the two most "looked at" bikes I owned were a Triumph Sprint and a Buell. everywhere I went with either one people had to come and talk about them. people love the character of the Buell.

To each their own... I like that thing... but I also think the Buell XB's are ridiculously perty... The 1125R not so much, but the CR? Hells yes... And the EBR 1190? Holy fuck that thing is SICK.

Truth

Sorry Harley, you could produce a 300hp v-twin "sporty" that would walk any sportbike for half of their price and I still wouldn't be interested.

Lost a customer for life..

Pfft, for every bike he buys, I won't buy eight. That'll teach em. :lol

Homeslice 04-19-2011 04:19 PM

Looks hot.......though with that fork angle it probably won't be too flickable

Avatard 04-19-2011 04:27 PM

Honestly, slice, all it needs is the old racer's trick; drop the forks in the trees just an inch or so, and that shit would be spot on.

So, basically every Buell except the one I bought, huh?
Gee, thanks OSP. :lol:

Why? What did Harley do to you?


I think the bike looks good, but it also looks heavy.

It reminds me of a really petite girl with cartoon-like big tits... sounds good in theory, but you just feel bad for her because you know her back is KILLING her.

And why do you care about her back :lol:

As a fellow TL owner I expected more from you :lol:

marko138 04-20-2011 09:06 AM

Well, it's your money, friends. But I sure as shit think they are uglier than sin. The CR is very close to it in ugliness.
