Hi GuysI'm a refugee from the imploding Aussie Buell forums.
I currently have a 2008 Buell Lightning XB12ss.
The only other v twin in my past has been a 2002 Cagiva Raptor, powered by the Suzuki TL100 engine.
Loved the motor but the bike - in particular its build quality was crap.
Love my Buell though[/b]

Yeah - the build quality was crap alright.
The plastics kept cracking, front gaurd, rear panels under the seat, the anodising on the triple clamps was chipping off in chunks along with the finish on the foot rest hangers.
All the rubber cable straps perished and fell off as well as all the rest of the rubber components like the air intake snorkels.
and to cap that all off, the bloody chain snapped and trashed the left hand crank case. Not that that was the Cagiva factories fault but it did leave a really bad taste in my mouth
I was bloody lad to see the back of it.
