RANT:
I started to post this on the XB12X thread and decided that I should start a new thread for my ranting.
quote:
i'd consider it the more adventurous edge of the sport-touring category, which is EXACTLY where i'd like to spend my time.
Glad to see someone reads the advertizing print. Buell states it is for Adventure SPORT riding, not Dual sport riding.
to the others:
Offroad duty? where does Buell say that, I think they state where the pavement ends, not where the road ends.
Only an friggin idiot would even think it is designed to go out jumping logs and doing double jumps, geesh!
I have never read where anyone here thinks the BMW should be out jumping logs and doing double and triples.
What is the big hardon people have about Buell building this bike? (or any Buell)
Does it threaten some peoples false feeling of brand superiority? There is no such thing.
IF this bike sells well, maybe it will get some of the other brands interested in this market and build simliar bikes.
The way it is now, you can buy a cruiser, a sportbike, or a dirt bike, but not much to pick from for a bike that can link together 2 paved roads with 50 miles of gravel inbetween that is more sport tour . I know for a fact that my 12R doesnt like the gravel roads,although it makes a great sport tour bike.
I just dont get this brand thing. If it has 2 wheels and a motor, its cool in my book.
let the flaming begin!
