Default Buell Day at Mallory Park 25th July.

link

Anyone wanna come?

The link says £129, but when my mate rang up to book he only paid £99.

For that you get - free lunch, 2x30 min track sessions on a buell (not your bike, tyres, or fuel!), off road experience, and road rides on the buel range.

i'm going on 25th July, any one fancey it?

I think you're the first I've heard say that actually! Most people dislike that upper fairing (me included, unfortunately) - just sticks out too oddly around the lights, etc and also the whole fairing seems to jut forward a bit too much:

I hear they handle pretty well - good track tools? My only gripe is with the looks of the 1125R, I love the look of the others! Prefer the naked look on a Buell though

Wow, a track day full of ugly bikes might be worth going to see one put in its rightful place 'a skip'.

Mine was the XB9R with some added extras. Not ugly to me, and did ride and handle really well. Pulled like hell too.

Yes the SV I have now is more comfortable, smoother and its like a V tamed but the Buell was never meant to be my everday bike and you would not want to do more than 100 miles without a nights sleep to recover!

The SV is now my only bike and its used everday and I love it.
