Re: buell
Hi Wideboy,

Re: buell
Keep yer mines pies open, there is shortly going to be something up in idle banter about these. Might not answer your questions at first but when certain others see it they might add stuff for you

i rode it today and was like wow, so comfy for someone my size and not as heavy as i'd have 1st though so reckon it would still be a crack in the corners, i didn't get chance for a proper ride because my foot is still buggered Quote:

Re: buell
I fancy one too tbh.
someone posted on the linked thread about ukbeg.com - they're really helpful. Ask on there and you'll get some advice.

Re: buell
shhh don't put him off I have some buell parts I need to flog.
I'm quids in with wideboy  Edit: actually that's a valid point, drop it and it'll cost a bomb the headlights and fairing assembly I have cost in excess of £120 second hand, other parts will be just as bad.
