Never ridden one myself, but have seen several in action. I think that the Buell is a bike for experienced riders only - they have quite a bit of weight and way too much power. And most of them that I see here have a very short wheelbase, making them great for twisties and for racing, but very dangerous for anyone except the most experienced riders.

And that vibration - lets just say it look like they may be "a pleasure" to ride in more ways than one!
just a question, but if they are so great for racing then why arent they represented in the AMA series? Those are professional drivers and they wouldnt be concerned with being inexperienced. Nascar started race em on sunday, sell em on monday. Yet the AMA racing series has provided the same opportunity for the bike manufacturers. So where's the beef?
