I sold my dirt bike (:( ) But, I bought my Uncle's 1998 Buell S1 White Lightning! The thing is a torque monster!

Ohh yeah, I am sure I can handle it (not to sound like a cocky bastard who will get his ass handed to him), but I am pretty sure I have a good hold on it. Yeah I know, I am more worried about other drivers than myself. It will be a good time!

you find you drive more for others than you do for yourself. and when in a car you actually end up safer faster ;)

I agree completely! There are too many idiots out there :(

Very nice!, I`ve ridden a few Buels and really like `em. Serviced quite a few as well, keep an eye on the wheel bearings as they tend to eat them (seen a few needing new ones at 10,000 miles).
Looks quite a bit different to the UK market bikes, most of ours have the engine oil tank integral to the swingarm!.

so, no more dirt for you? I don't bite that. :)
I do like your new bike more than the one I'm looking for buying, a Triumph Street Triple 955i but I'll still keep my dirt bike.

Nah, not for now at least. I am going to save up and get a Suzuki RM250 two stroke. Four strokes are too expensive for a broke college kid. But I will be back, there's no doubt about that!

Yeah, this one is in great shape. It was my Uncle's bike, and he was very rigorous on maintenance, so were good!
