Quote:A colleague of mine was looking at a Buell earlier this year, as he fancied a change from his beemerGS
Â
He ended up trading in his BMW for a new Multistrada 1200
Â
Last week i heard that he has sold the 'Strada for an R1200, apparently he found the Strada too fast and pokey ! - (EDIT, to be fair he is only about 5'5", if that matters)
Â
The Buell looks the part, although a strada would be my choice (If ever i had that sort of money)
Yes, Multistrada's are okay (basically a TDM copy aren't they ) but way too many ££'s for me. The Buell is a more affordable itch I'm going to scratch at some point probably, but, as I said, the TDM is a better bike for me at the moment. I had an 1100GS which was a cracking bike but with my back problem I found it a little heavy to push around. The Buell is only10kgs heavier than the TDM900 and about 40kgs lighter than the GS.
