.....yeah I know I'm gonna get some greif, but my X1 is now for sale, not going to start listing spec and all that jazz, a lot of you know how much money and upgrades its had, so if you really want a totally sorted X1 PM with you number and we'll talk about spec and money etc.......
I will be advertising it on the continent via my good Dutch friends shortly also,but those who just want to ring me and try and talk me out of it thats fine too, bring on the onslaught :uhoh:

Not a 100% sure yet Nick, but I am sure it won't be from the HD stable, don't get me wrong I love my Buell and have for the last 6 years, but things and circumstances change so its going.

No doubt Ian, I regretted selling almost every bike I've sold, I still get people say to me at local bike meets "I can't believe you sold that triple 8" but thats the way it is, it is so easy to be "Blinkered by the brand" I became that with Ducati for many years and have been that way with Buell too, to a degree.

I thought long and hard before I made this decision, the bit "with a bit of tinkerin' here an' there" concerned me the most, as a change of bike might lead to someone else maintaining my ride, but what the hell, I've probably concentrated so hard on tinkering and modifying for so long I've forgotten about getting out and riding.I have many reasons for having a change, some might think they are "wrong, stupid or pathetic" but I dont care, its going(famous last words :roll: ), I don't need to sell it, I have chosen to have a change and not for changes sake.

Needs a clean on that picture mate :oooops: lOl I could spend a week discussing mods macnab, but I don't think I'd be to far out in saying it is probably one of the most sorted X1's in the country, if its worth doing to an X1 chances are its been done to mine.
