Hi there,

I'm a Virgin where Buells are concerned but am stressing on which one to buy must be early model not the big Frame later ones there's a couple on eBay at the moment but could really do with some expert advice

Individual preference between the tuber models, but when buying, I'd go for one or both of the following :

Buy from a UKBEG member. You'll know it's been loved. :yup:

Buy one which has been through Maz's hands. You'll know it's right. :yup:

Oh, and 2001 X1, although my tuber was a '99 M2, and I currently run a 2008 XT, I know differently now.

Wise choice.

The 2001 X1 is a good choice and possibly better value as most of the mods / recals are done as standard so there's less to spend on them.
However I'm an out and out S1 addict (1998 S1WL, arguably THE tube framed Buell) they're hard to beat for an out right raw scratching / hooligan machine, very flickable and very easy to shift your weight around on due to the narrow seat . They are more expensive especially the white lightning (pearlesent white) However the 1998 S1w or 'lightning strike' is less rare and cheaper with similar spec, different colours. The down side is that s1's need a bit spending on them to fix some of there niggles, once done though they are well sorted and pretty dam reliable.
The Orange one in 'for sale' has had many of the mods done by Maz and has been loved by a member of this club. :yup:
There has also been a silver one on E bay recently for 6k, again part sorted.
S1's can eat money but a sorted one is a sound investment that will appreciate in value ,not that that makes one fart of use coz you'll probably never part with it :P
Good luck with your search

:yt: Exactly what I was going to say but wordsmithed impeccably :clap:
All depends on budget and I don't think you would go far wrong with the tubers from any of the regular members currently advertising on here. If it was me it would be Prozac's S1W which I first saw 10 years ago and, if money was no object, I would probably bid up to £7000. I do have a vested interest though :shock: I'm just trying to increase the market value of my S1W which I will never, ever part with 8-)
