I currently own a Honda CBR600FX and have previously owned multiple bikes like the Kawasaki GPZ900R Ninja and rode lots of different bikes.

But now I like the idea of a light weight, high power, lower-revving street bike and today I found what looks like the perfect bike in the form of a Buell XB12R :



Look at that bike, it's awesome! I sat on it and it feels really light and fits me really well. I think I will have to buy one  Grin

It is belt driven rather than chain, the rear wheel is only fixed to one side of the axle, it has upside-down front forks for light un-sprung weight, the front brake is a rim-mounted disc with 3-pot caliper, the exhaust hugs the centre line of the under belly etc... Oh and interestingly it is an American design under the Harley wing.

I came across it at a Harley Davidson open day and missed out on a test ride due to time commitments  Tongue

I may go back tomorrow but the weather forcast is for rain, but I may still turn up  Grin

If you never rode a motorbike, you need to !

never drive a bike myself but this one looks cool. Is it costly one?
I think that maybe I'll get one in future to go in far places to do photography and just for camping, although car could do this job more better probably...

I don't think it is very expensive at around $10,000 An Italian bike like this would probably cost a lot more.
