I like the new buell 1125r, it looks way different than other bikes out there, and the engine seems to be better than what they used to use.

I like the VRODs and may get one in the next couple years. I had a 96 Fatboy and it was a nice bike to cruise long distances on. I really don't understand the Harley haters. I like the idea of having like 10 bikes and riding whatever tickles your fancy that day. Harley's have their place just like sport bikes.

Let's see... They're nothing special, they're over priced, they have to be serviced more often than Asain bikes and labor costs more, and they arn't dependable form my/friends experience. Why go through all that when you can buy an Asian curiser and save big bucks and have less trouble?

I don't understand them either. I also don't get Harley riders hating sportbikes. I like all kinds of bikes.

^ I don't hate them, and I don't hate the riders either. I just don't see the point in buying one; they're not worth the sum of their parts.

My buddy just bought this bike and brought it up from the States last week.

He is selling his 06 GSXR750. He LOVES the ride and the looks he gets is unreal.
