Quote: Anyhow, they were comparing a 1000cc Buell with a 1000cc Honda or GSX-R or R1.
I don't know why they made that comparison. I have a sport bike (Aprilia Mille) and other than the latest Rotax-engined model, never considered the Buells sports bikes per se but rather as a sporty "street fighter" type of animal, similar say to the Ducati Monster. Would one comapre an R1 or GSX-R to a Monster?
I can't speak for the States but especially here and in Germany and even more so in France you'll find they are very popular, but in that specific category (street-fighterish).
