men get sporty bikes round midlife-crisis age
women in their 30's
:p
After noticing in a few threads that there are more than a few middle-aged Buell XB owners (myself included). I was wondering if everyone would give their age and which model of XB (or Blast). I'll start. I got my XB12Ss for my 43rd B-day and my wife, hereafter referred to as Jennifer, has a XB9SX and is 34. Don't tell her I said that.;)

i've had sporty bikes since i was 14 got my license at 16 and now im 35 with a buell and a 2 other bikes
I had my first bike when I was about 20, rode it everywhere sold it when I headed overseas with the Air Force 23 years later I bought my Buell Firebolt. I was wanting to start riding again and great gas mileage didn't hurt.
I'm 34 and I have an '06 XB12X. Bought it in Feb and had a '99 Sportster before that. I decided to upgrade after nearly seven years!!!
ok ok, I'm in midlife, but not in crisis!
I'm 27 and ride an 06' Buell XB12Ss. Had a 98 CBR that I bought new in 99. Rode it up until 2 years ago, got married and sold it ( she didn't make me :D ) Got the itch for another and the misses said "we're gonna start a family in the next year or so, so get exactly what you want, you wont be getting another for a while" SO I DID!!!
woohoo, i'm not the youngest around here!!! :p
31 here...
gave mine the choice...Got the itch for another and the misses said "we're gonna start a family in the next year or so, so get exactly what you want, you wont be getting another for a while" SO I DID!!!
"you let me ride you 100k a week or i buy a buell"...i got a buell :p :D
I just turned 26 years old.
I got my first bike at about 15,Yamaha yz 250, graduated to street bikes,bounced back and forth between bikes and old cars.Had a '66 G.T.O. for a while then another Yamaha,I think I have a.d.d. when it comes to things with motors.Now here I am at 38 with a 03 XB9R I bought it used, at the time I would have gotten an XBR or XBS just found the Firebolt first.I'm glad I picked the 'bolt it's looks realy grew on me.Maybe I should have held out for an XB12 but whatever,building power is half the fun.
