I love my Buell. I love how I don't have to keep the revs up all the time. While I do enjoy the smoothness of the I-4, I prefer the rumble of the v-twin. Maybe it's because I'm a car guy, and I love the sound of a v-8. My Buell isn't exactly a touring bike, I've tried, but the geezer glide is there to take up the slack.

DRiven that stretch of I-40 many times. You were playing with fire doing 100 MPH through there!  That stretch of interstate is crawling with state police who nail people for more than 5 over regularly.

I fell in love with V-twins while breaking in my '99 SV650 race bike on the street. Loved the lack of high frequency vibes and not having to downshift 3 times to pass! I really like my current naked SV1000, but have been looking for even more power lately while doing track days. The power and torque of the new Tuono V4R is tempting, but if KTM brings out this RC8 (1190) powered Superduke, I may stay V-twin?!

I love the sound of the 1203cc twin through the Jardine RT-1 - like a P-47 on the highway.

This for shredding (relative term based on my lack of skills) shit roads around the house
 This for hauling Mrs. Easy around the countryside
