Buell Super Cruiser..

Post by Dodgy69 »

Possibly the ugliest Buell I've ever seen and they've made a few rough old dogs. I've also seen some beauties aswel.

Let's have the radiator a different colour to the rest of the bike, make it a design feature.... Said no one ever.

I don't think its too bad at all. :crazy: If I went down that route though, it'd be a street/road glide for me.

Horrible. Not even close to being a cohesive deign.

Looks like a pretend motorcycle from GTAV.

I loved my Buell M2 , that became a Buell M1
Wasn't so keen on the XB range

But now the brand seems to have fallen into the hands of some people who have no idea.
That bike is hideous

I occasionally find myself looking at XB12s, one of my favourite bikes ever, then i read about how much of a shit show they are to own.

This thing though. Meh. Not really a Buell to my eyes, Buells are supposed to be the sorta sporty modern tech, but still off the wall, bikes Harley would never build.

This is just hipster crap.

Does Erik still own Buell? I know he bought back name rights from HD when he set up EBR.

Don't think he's got anything to do with these.

No, he doesn’t have anything ti do with this set up, which almost began as a back of a garage thing.
He has taken to becoming a recording and release music which is Poundland Americana. And also producing EBikes called Fuells. Unfortunately they are very wide of the mark for the European taste

I'd forgotten about Fuell. I covered the bikes on my Elevenses webcast...

I see there is a fuell.eu website on which the bikes are still listed as 'coming soon'... more vapourware??
