    You want to trade your great handling, good looking american sport bike for a american crusier with a "sporty" look and decent handling. The ladies, my wife included think this is a sex magnet, and qestion why I would trade for a "fugly sport bike" I am asking 4500, and mostly am just looking for a change, so not in a hurry to sell or trade.



    I will consider most any buell, maybe even a nice blast +cash. My fav buell models (although some would be a far fetched trade for my bike) Xb12x, XB12stt, or ST3. Really any buell that uses risers, not clip-ons.

    My bike is a 2002 883r under 27,000 miles and less than 5k since the rebuild. You can ignore that 883 bit (until you get it insured, then you will be happy that it says 883 on the tank).
    NRHS 1250 kit
    883 heads mildly worked
    buell cams/flywheels ect for higher revs (out of a 98 s1)
    Mikuni HSR 42
    Crane cams hi4 single fire ignition
    Supertrap 2:2 exhaust.
    Still has the 883 gearing (same as US buells)
    Progressive Springs front and rear, with adjustable rebound on the rears.
    Good amount of life left in the tires (I wish they were worn so I could justify replace them with something grippier)
    Clubman handlebars internally wired, with bar end mirrors.
    Little tweaks here and there to make it what it is.
    Probalbly not as much grunt as any buells, but probably turns more heads. This bike has been ridden and there are small marks on the rear fender, and a dent and a scratch in the pipes.

    Located in Fort Collins CO.



    Flame away for posting a hardley here. Especially for a first post. Once I can unload this thing on someone I will be jumping in here with a new buell of some kind.

    Probably not so great to come on a Buell enthusiast forum and refer to them as "fugly sport bikes". Just a tip.

    you gotta be ****ting me. you come on here, looking to trade a harley for a buell (no problem with that) but then you proceed to talk down buells and talk up your harley. do you think any of us are buying into your presentation? what are you, a used car salesman or something?

    just when i thought i had seen it all.....

    how uncomfy does that bike look huh. keep your current bike and go buy a buell for around 3-4 grand and just ride it.
