Bastards!

Were the Buells worth a damn?

Any past/preset Harley owner I've talked to said they weren't the most reliable of bikes, except the ones that were so dedicated they would never utter a harsh word about The Harley.

I'm guessing Buells are a completely separate product line, but no idea if they share tech/parts/failures.

Hah.

My uncles are getting to be old, grew up with a few harleys...one said he's too old to fuck with them anymore, the other has his eyes set on a honda aero, said he doesn't feel like paying a lot more money for a less-reliable and less-comfortable harley.

Just was wondering, I've never owned any of them :P

Separate line, but they use HD leaky teeth rattling motors.  Most had crappy to decent performance, but SV's and RC51's supposedly steamroll most Buells.  The Blast from what I've read is only a blast because you are like "Whoa I'm on this ugly slow piece of shit that makes my brain bounce around inside my skull!  Sweet!"

totally wrong.

you have no clue.

all the Hd powered buells had extra balancers and used good mounts, minimal vibration.

mine never leaked a drop. very very reliable. buells are easily the longest lasting "sport" bikes.

no valve adjustments, no chain adjustments... i put 13000 miles on mine only changing the oil. stock belt, etc...

the 1200 is about as fast as older i4 600s

they were built to corner, i easily schooled lots of people on liter bikes, some of it is rider skill some of it is the bike.

they are great street bikes

i've ridden with people on sv650s, sv1000s, and RC51 and easily left them in the dust

So the reviews are full of lies? 

probably.

there are a lot of i4 fanbois that if something doesn't go 170mph it sucks.

i owned one. the vibration was minimal. it was extremely reliable. extremely low maintenance. it stopped great, handled great, sounded great. it had 108hp and 88ft-lbs

13k miles with NO MAINTENANCE. try that with any other sportbike

if you ask 95% of the people who have owned one, they'll say the same thing

so obviously there are fastest bikes in a drag race... the 1125r is pretty fast.
Title: Re: :(
Post by: random-strike on October 15, 2009, 01:14:49 PM
The 1125 is why I said most Buells were crappy to decent.

for what? drag racing? top speed? what?

the xb12s was in the top 5 for handling street bikes, don't remember who made the list though

from what I've read

I research before considering major purchases.  Much of that is reading reviews.  And to say single cylinders don't have vibration is just wrong.

its also has minimal vibration, yea its a thumper, but it has all the shit they could do to make it smooth.

my craptor = very little vibration, it was 700cc........

Meh.  The newer harleys are super reliable.  That off-balance engine design is annoying, and they aren't the best performers because of it unless you throw a pile of displacement at the problem.  The truth is somewhere between Dullard and Blissanus's imaginary lines in the sand, probably closer to Johnny's but it's not by much so don't let it go to your head there.

We just watched the video and discussed Buells here at the shop.  They don't sell, but we can't figure out why.  The price is right/cheap, they are odd duck cool without being an unreliable Ducati, and nothing's ever perfect so it's okay if the bike falls a little short in respect to total domination if it's a good performer and has a distinctive character that draws enthusiasts.

Sad, really.  I guess the Harley Davidson "America's Favorite Boatanchor - if you have to ask why you're three generations inbred" stigma in the crotch rocket circles kept the Buells from being the crossover bike they were meant to be.  If you meet some of the stereotypical Harley riders you understand why, fucking finger pointing at the ground fools because they're too good to wave like a normal person raised with manners.

BTW, single cyclinder is the very definition of off balance and vibration, Johnny.  Anyone with a Briggs & Stratton push mower, or 80s Yamaha Thumper, knows this.   :mexi:

Im actually somewhat sad to see this. Would I ever buy a buell? Probably not. Have I ridden a few, yes.
Why wouldnt I buy one...simply because I do not want a street bike. If I were in the market for a street bike and was going to thrown down $8-10g's, a buell would be in my thoughts, probably on top of the list. They are reliable, and they handle/brake amazingly well.

My opinion...90% of the people who bash them, both in speaking and writing about them on the internet are total and complete nut swingers of other brands. Its like someone saying "lets see you do with your nissan that I can do with my honda....argument".

To each there own I guess.


Title: Re: :(
Post by: Jorsher on October 15, 2009, 03:07:30 PM
Yeah, I don't care, was just curious :noel:

The uncles haven't owned a Harley in a while, so maybe they are super-reliable now.

Their reasoning for not getting another was they weren't as smooth, were heavier, a lot more expensive, and more maintenance than newer bikes from other brands.  I'm sure the older unbalanced motors weren't the best for reliability.

Anyway.

When, if, I ever buy a bike, it'll be a high-maintenance sport bike :P

Didn't know there was another road racing fan here.  Yeah, fuck the Buell's.  I feel terrible for the Erik Buell, because he put so much time/effort/money into it, but christ.  They had to race the big ones against 600cc bikes just to be competitive.  Run them against something similar in that motor size range, like a 1098, and they get raped.  They are fun on the street though :)  They are good sport touring bikes, but they are not anywhere near the performance of the supersport bikes.

And how the fuck are they top 5 handling bikes?  That is laughable.  They are nice, but again, it's a sport touring bike.  The limits of the Buell are nowhere near the limits of the other sportbike options.  

And the reason SV riders can smoke some of the Buell's around a track is that the SV650 is one of the most well balanced bikes for anything with more than 2 turns in the road.  I want one for a CCS-LW bike

you are clueless... and can't ride any of them to their limit so why would you even care. there are several places that have ranked the xb at the top in handling.

i can go pull up a bunch of races where the 1125r has beat the 1098s... the 1098r is faster... but its a pure race bike and not designed for the street.

a sv650 can't beat anything. sv650 = GIRLS BIKE. retarded looking piece of junk.

they all needed chains, they all needed valve adjusted...  ::)

i rode the bike almost everyday, and carved corners almost everyday.

Hahaha.  If you still have your Buell,

http://www.nesba.com/Info/Track.htm?tid=68 (http://www.nesba.com/Info/Track.htm?tid=68)

If you want to come play.  It's a track day, so nothing serious, but I will let you borrow a lap timer, and we will see who turns what lap times.  For more comparison, since you can't/won't come out and play at a track...

Here are the records for motorcycles around Summit Main Circuit at Summit Point Raceway...

Overall: 1:13.922 by Robert Jensen on a Suzuki GSX-R1000 during the ASRA Unlimited Grand Prix race on 5/29/06
600 Superbike: 1:14.848 by Matt Wait on a Yamaha R6 Superbike in qualifying on 9/7/03
600 Supersport: 1:15.107 by Matt Wait on a Yamaha R6 Supersport in qualifying on 9/7/03
Buell 1200: 1:18.681 by Michael Barnes on a Buell 1200 on 5/25/02
125: 1:19.676 by Jason DiSalvo on a Honda RS125 on 8/1/99

The overall record got blasted a month ago when Jeff Wood went 1:11.4xx on a 1000 Suzuki.  But, as an interesting point, someone has run a 1:14.0xx (Might have been a 15, unsure) on an SV650.  So yeah, guess SV's can't be made fast and are slow.  How do the Buell's fair in any race class where they are not allowed an extreme displacement advantage?  Yeah, don't see any Buell's on the top lap times at Summit, or a few other tracks I decided to pull up.  But maybe the guy on the SV650 can't ride, and it's all lies.

And how did you get 5000 miles out of a set of tires?  I think I got about 2700 on PP 2ct's this year before the sides were shot.  Sold em for $50 to some guy who needed a cheap set with a lot of tread in the middle for commuting. 

But if you want to come to NJMP with a Buell, I will pay for your track day, NESBA membership, and tires if you can out lap the 600s.  If you don't, you have to pay for mine out of your tax dollars...
Title: Re: :(
Post by: QikEnuF on October 15, 2009, 08:00:24 PM
And for the $12k you pay for that, you could have a retard fast 08 CBR1kRR.  $7k OTD cost on the bike, that leaves you 5k for things like cams, PCIII, full exhaust, Ohlins, etc.  Not impressed :/  Oh, and I bet you the '10 ZX10R will hand it its ass in a straight line.

And if you really rode hard and carve corners on a daily basis, maybe your rears would look like these rears after a weekend :)

He really did.  I feel horrible for him.  He/Harley were doing great things in terms of bringing more money into the sport, even if it did lead to some questionable rules changes that allowed the Buell's to not only compete, but dominate.  Buell is/was really good to their riders, and paid out more contingency money than the other manufacturers for grass roots racing.  I have immense respect for Erik Buell, and really enjoyed his self-joking regarding the 2010 Buell Blast (Google it, you will realize just how cool of a guy he really is), but they really just didn't have the stuff to be a real superbike manufacturer.  I wish they would have been able to continue, but there just isn't enough support from Harley to keep them going.

eric buell tried a lot of new things with bikes and it is too bad none of it will get to be carried on.

Brand new bike :)

Aaron, like I said, I love the passion that Erik had with Buell.  I love the bikes.  I love the things he tried.  I just wanted to piss on Johnny, and I think I did well.  And I really hope/believe that he will still be building bikes.  There is a thread over on the WERA boards discussing this with people very involved with Buell, and it appears that the new management of HD (Industry outsiders) didn't like the idea of Harley backing a sportsbike company, let alone two.  That is why they are also putting MV on the chopping block as well.  Hopefully, Erik's partnership with Rotax will enable him to continue his dream, just without the bean counters at Harley.  Be nice to see what he can do with no corporate strings again.  I hope some rich motorcycle enthusiast decides to invest in his ideas and the 200 people that went down with them can have jobs again.

The bikes Buell built before Harley bought them were amazing, then corporate bean counters proceeded to kill it off.

Post by: QikEnuF on October 15, 2009, 10:57:38 PM
there are several places that have ranked the xb at the top in handling.

a sv650 can't beat anything. sv650 = GIRLS BIKE. retarded looking piece of junk.


1st is to disprove your point.

2nd is something you failed to address.

3rd Why would I fund you the money only to have you flake out?

Ever been to the track, Johnboy?  Or are your corner carving experiences that allow you to get 5k out of a rear tire pushing the limits of your bike far more than the track ever could?  Let's see those chicken strips, boy...  I can't get even 4k out of a street rear tire before the sides are chewed up.  Maybe you could use some of my takeoffs like above for your corner carving.  I'm sure the middle part of the tires have enough meat on them for you to get your "lean" on.

It is way too easy/fun to get Johnny worked up, then call him a faggot.

qik = poser

i've scraped the feelers on the pegs on my buell on the street... thats using the entire tire. i also commuted... you can get a lot of miles out of the center of the tire ::)

as for my motard about 2 maybe 2.5k on conti sm which are shitty tires and i do not like them at all.

i thought was faster on my husaberg, other people said i was faster on the buell... except after the conti got decently warn i had the front slide out on me several times even when i was putting all the weight i could on the front...



ps: great way to call someone out, tell them to do something you know will never happen. you are a poser

Oh no, you scraped peg.  I can drag the pegs too if I wanted to go slow enough.  I want to see the edges of your tires.  Otherwise, you aren't leaning enough or going fast enough.  Get up off the bike and get your knee down before your peg hits.

Pics of your rear tires please?  Let's see those tires Johnny boy.  I doubt you have pebbled a tire like those in your life... I got tons in my garage I use as motor stands and such that have nothing left on the sides and look almost new in the middle.  You aren't riding hard if you are getting 5k out of a rear tire, period.

i don't have the buell anymore.

sv650 are pieces of junk and if its faster than a buell around any course its because of the rider.

the sv650 has ~75hp

the brand new sv650 might be better i dont know much about it. the others are garbage

If you aren't wearing leathers and you are riding as fast as you think you are, you are either stupid or delusional about how fast you are.  Still waiting on pics of your tires..  And the rider on that 1200 Buell is damn fast too.  So you are saying there isn't someone in the grass roots racing scene on a Buell that knows how to ride?  Funny, I'd have though all the good riders would have gone to the 1200s since they are "the best handling bike" in the world.  Fucking idiot.

It's so easy, isn't it?  Sad part is I'd enjoy owning an XB12.  I think it's something unique and damn fun for what it was meant to be.  Blissy boy just likes to build them up as better than they are.  Care to explain to me why the Buell's needed another 600CC's of motor to compete with the 600cc supersports if they are such amazing handling bikes and are so fast?  If you explain that one, you win a cookie.  But yeah, it must be a ricer theory and the 600cc bikes are really 1000's in 600 frames, and that is why they still win.  Fucking toolbag.  You should learn when to shut the fuck up and walk away.  Normally, I think me and you think along the same lines, but it is just way to easy to get you started.  You lose this one, so just shut the fuck up please

I think its sad that HD just doesn't sell Buell like their doing with MV Agusta. It's not like anything in each others lines are competing against one another. Buell will be gone the way of Saturn which is sad. Not saying that Saturn being let go was bad cause I hated Saturns with a passion. I think they were heading in the better direction at the end using Rotax engines in the 1125 as it was a step away from HD. And for MV Agusta, hopefully someone like Ducati, Aprilia will pick them up. HD should of learn their leason when they had Aermacchi. Love or hate them, their were innovative and didn't look like the cookie cutter I4 japanese sport bikes.

Qik is a poser.

You are making up things... I never said they were as fast as liter bikes. I specifically said they were as fast as older 600s.

On the street its different... Same reason people on wr250s are faster than people on sportbikes...

They need 600cc more because they don't rev to 16500rpm like the new 600s

Ps. You are a poser

Post by: QikEnuF on October 16, 2009, 12:12:33 AM
The Duc's and the 1000's don't rev that high either.  Why can't it race them instead of something with half its displacement?  By the way, the last gen. 600s would be rought 04-05.  The Buell 12 is not faster than them by a long shot.  Straight line, maybe.  Turns, no way in hell.  I want a WR250 or some sort of tard though.  Husky 610 makes me drool.

you are fucking retarded. the xb is a little slower than any 04 05 i4 600 in a drag race... corners it rider ability

most of the liter superbikes rev to about 14k.

the xb is 6800, or 7200 i think with the new ones. the 1125r is 10.5k

1098s is 10.7k

sv1000 is 11

So first it is as fast, now it is a full second slower in the 1/4?  Awesome.  And it isn't rider skill in the corners either.  You are delusional.

Oh, and to add salt to the wound, the 03 Suzuki 1000 is also faster than your Buells.  And it is 6 years old.  And revs maybe 3k higher and revs roughly the same as the 1125R.  And lets not forget, it is still down on displacement.  Go to bed Johnny, you are out of your element.

no one said they were as fast as ss liter bikes. you are a motorcycle RICER. i said the xb were as fast as OLDER 600s. OLDER doesn't necessarily mean 04-05.

there are two types of fast. accelereate/top speed and cornering.

a bike can typical be FASTER than another through corners, and be SLOWER in a straight line.

being fast in corners is 99% rider. that is why guys on ninja 250s smoke you on whatever piece of shit you have at the moment. all motorcycles will go fast enough to get to cornering speed.

the 1125r races in the same class as the i4 600s because they make the same power.

Fuck Buells and HD they suck ass and have to cheat to win, and fuck UP amecrican road racing. AMA racing might as well be Nascar now that DMG and Buell have taken over  >:(

Didn't know there was another road racing fan here.  Yeah, fuck the Buell's.  I feel terrible for the Erik Buell, because he put so much time/effort/money into it, but christ.  They had to race the big ones against 600cc bikes just to be competitive.  Run them against something similar in that motor size range, like a 1098, and they get raped.  They are fun on the street though :)  They are good sport touring bikes, but they are not anywhere near the performance of the supersport bikes.

And how the fuck are they top 5 handling bikes?  That is laughable.  They are nice, but again, it's a sport touring bike.  The limits of the Buell are nowhere near the limits of the other sportbike options.  

And the reason SV riders can smoke some of the Buell's around a track is that the SV650 is one of the most well balanced bikes for anything with more than 2 turns in the road.  I want one for a CCS-LW bike

moronic post.

buell doesn't make a "sport touring bike"

14. S. Higbee (Buell 1125R)
15. C. Fillmore (Yamaha)



Just going to Bold two lines.....  Talk to anyone that actually pays attention to racing.  The Buell being allowed to run in that class is retarded.  How does Buell do in MotoGP or WSBK?  Oh yeah, doesn't compete because they will not bend the rules for Harley.

I seem to remember that spelling in the PC version as well as NES Skate or Die 2.

The Buell 1125R placed 2nd and 5th in its first race, the 1000km Hockenheim. This podium finish should go some way toward validating Erik Buell's controversial new design.

The 1125R competed in Class 4 for four-stroke bikes with three-cylinders or less, competing directly against factory teams running KTM RC8s and BMW HP2 Sports, as well as the usual assortment of Ducati 1098s and Aprilia RSV 1000 Rs. An HP2 Sport won the class, with KTM RC8s coming in 3rd and 4th.

didn't do anything to my bike except bend the handle bars and put a couple scratches in the turn signal on the front. basically rode it through the ditch and fell over at the end.

poser.

all these bikes i was riding with are "faster" than my xb12ss. the camera bike is a bmw 1200r the bike black in front of him at 3:00 is a newer zx10

no, his warning was for gravel on the road... i did slide a tad on the same place he did in the gravel at the beginning.

his warning message is in the video before the 3:00 mark at (2:30 to be specific)

It look like your in the ditch before that trooper would have been in your lane

no, i was coming around the corner and it was coming up towards me in the middle of the road... i stood the bike up and slowed as much as i could went into the ditch rode it out and fell over at the end.

but its no biggie, i can't ride, never owned a motorcycle, always rode straight, know nothing about them because they aren't v8s, and can't build a LT1 motor.

as i was going around the corner, it coming from the opposite direction in the middle of the fucking road coming straight at me, while i was leaned over in the corner. i stood the bike up and hammered the brakes, went across the road in front of the trooper slowing down as much as i could went into the ditch, road it out for a while, and fell over at the end. the trooper slowed down and stopped to see if i was alright.

Iwata, Japan

In a statement released by Yamaha Motor Corporation, Hirofumi Osawa, President of Yamaha Corporation of America, stated that the company is looking into acquiring recently defunct Buell Motorcycles. “We are interested in the spirit of innovation that Buell has used as a foundation in their business. We feel their values align well with Yamaha’s culture”, stated Mr. Osawa.

According to Yamaha, discussions of a purchase are in the exploratory stage. Harley-Davidson Corp, owner of Buell since 2003, could not be reached for comment.
