Current ride: Yamaha srx600
Hi my name is adrian ward I live near Oxford uk ,
Been riding bikes for about 30 odd years mainly owned big singles and the odd Ducati , currently have just one bike a Yamaha SRX 600 which I have owned modified since 94
For years I've admired Buells with their individual looks and engineering

So now I'm on the hunt for one ,

Personally I prefer the looks of the tube framed bikes , but still on the fence regards carbs or fuel injection ,

So the hunt begins

Good luck!
Best bit of advice: Get someone who knows their Buells to check a potential purchase BEFORE it becomes yours, not after... :old:
And, welcome!

Definitely look at the 1125R's
I love mine and can easily keep up with my mate on his GSX-R 750.

Hello Adrian,

If you have been riding 30 years forget the 1125 and go with a tuber buddy ...
