Buell Firebolt

I am considering buying a new bike and on my relativly short list is the Buell Firebolt XB12R. I was wondering if anyone has ridden this as a street bike (I.E. Short-to-long Highway trips, Twisties, Cresting Hills, the occasional Stoppie and highway wheelie) I think it might be time for a little change from the 4 cylinders. Also how comfortable are they on all-day rides? Any imput would be awesome thanks.

Re: Buell Firebolt

i had a friend with one and he rode with us all the time (all sport bikes) he kept up just fine till about 140. Sweet bike, it got alot of attention loud as hell and looked like one of us. he didn't wheelie but asked me to on it to see if it could and it did right up no clutch in first but the gears are short as hell and came down after about 100 feet. second wasn't easy even with clutch and again short *** gears. I never did rock an endo, not on someone elses bike plus it's kinda heavy. as far as comfort the thing was like a couch i could definatly ride that all day nice position and super soft seat!

for the class of bike it would fit in i'd give it a solid 8 on a 10 scale!
