Yep, I still have the Buell. It's like riding a trial bike after a blast the VTR lol
I've not ridden anything that comes close to my Buell for handling, a streetfightered R1 I had came close inasmuch as it felt the same but with warp factor.
This VTR I have needs the bar conversion doing as I can't be on with clipons.

I'm so unlucky that if there is such a thing as re-incarnation I'll come back as me!

Le Mans was too long with shite handling compared to old brit bikes I had at the time, uncomfortable, lights worked when they wanted, clunky gearbox.
Lazarus was plastic fantastic, the engine blew on me! I lost a few quid on that one :(

Once upon a time I saw this Dresda on eBay for 2k, I thought bargain because the Triumphs by Dresda are worth a mint.
I MOTed it and rode it twice, it was like showroom condition so didn't want to ride it much - the obvious answer was to flog it and so I did. It took a while to sell starting at 3.5k and selling at 2k ! It was only 400cc but was mental after 4k rpm
