I think I might be getting a new bike!!
So I saw a special on TV the other night about the new 2006 BUELL motorcycles. I have found my next bike. The Buell Ulysses. The only bike I have even thought about purchasing since the day I got my Superhawk.

KFRacing didn't mention the cost of that diesel barge. It would take years of riding to make up the difference from the fuel savings. If the motor is designed right, it should last for frikin' ever so it would pay off in spades down the road but who keeps a bike that long?

Unfortunatly there are no buell dealers near where I live so I am going to have to find one that will let me test ride it before I fork over the money to purchase it.
