Why so many real Buell haters F.f.s.theres obviously some sort of Buell hierarchy here,yeah Its ok if you like your tuber Harley engined things then fair enough,but I never wanted to own a Ferguson because of the whole persona of the posing wankers who Ride them.if you want a Harley buy one! But why the fuck should should I feel guilty about a bike I love that hasn't got an h.d stamp on it.

xenogenesis = The supposed production of offspring markedly different from either parent.
Belliferous = Bringing war.

I've got a foot in both camps, they're very different bikes. The XB is a characterfull sweet handling machine that I probably carry more corner speed on than my tuber. I'll do more miles on the XB also, but.......... It's the tuber that puts the biggest smile on my face.

I love my XB but have never ridden a tuber (I am vertically challenged and tubers are tall), so cannot compare them. I also ride a Blast (500 single, to those that don't know) and love that too, for a different reason. We all ride different bikes for different reasons but that doesn't make those bikes we don't ride worse or not any good to those we enjoy. I think I know what I mean... lOl :yup:
