Added another cafe racer to my stable

Well for what they have been selling Buells for i went and bought a new 2009 1125cr. Have 300 miles on it now and love it. first bike that would ever wheelie under power in 3 gears with me on it. handles like a dream after I followed the suspension set up in the book. Now I have the old school cafe racer (thruxton) and a new style cafe racer. don't really need 3 bikes in the garage so if one goes it will be the ZX 14. oh ya Buell was 6400 otd. that's taxes and everthing.

they're giving those things away. It's a shame what happened to Buell but I wish I had the $$$ to pick up a sweet ride for next to nothing.

Congrats. Oh, and post pics or it didn't happen!

I too wish I had the cash to snatch one of those badboys up for what they are going for. They are a heck of a motorcycle.
