I haven't done much of anything the past few weeks with the rockets, because, well, I've been shopping...

So, after weeks of deliberation, test rides, negoatiations with used sellers and new dealers, I finally took the plunge yesterday!

Here she is, my brand new 2005 Buell XB9SX Lightning CityX...




Obviously, I'm going to be spending some of my launching/building time out riding instead!

Later,
EV

Where's the seat belt?

Thank god the Safety Nazis in this country have not tried to force seat belts on Motorcycle riders.....YET.
Eventually some safety (which I find HIGHLY overrated in general) nut will propose this and the insurance lobby will for some moronic reason back it.

Yes, there is such a thing as NORMAL, if you have to ask what is "NORMAL" , you probably aren't !
Failure may not be an OPTION, but it is ALWAYS a POSSIBILITY.
ALL systems are GO for MAYHEM, CHAOS, TURMOIL, FIASCOS, and HAVOC !

Nice bike! But I think that I would personally have to get one I could kick back on instead of reach forward. The old back just wouldn't take that anymore.
