Notice the similarities? Man, I want one of each.

Similarities in design for sure. But the buell is leaps ahead in chassis technology.

Ride the buell, ride the tripple. If you're like me, you buy the buell and quickly forget about the tripple.

Not that it is bad. It's a good machine. But it fades compared to the buell handling wise.

I got a speed triple to along with my sportster and that thing hauls

I've had the SBX for a day on loan- what a blast to ride! Like it's running on tracks... Not as torquey as the sporty (Buell was stock- what did I expect?), but the cornering, brakes & overall balance much better. Truly a great machine, but a too-strong motocross influence for me.

If I was going to buy a sportbike, the CityX would be mine. Hell, I might go buy one anyway. I've heard nothin' but good about that machine.

Just checked out the CityX at the Seattle CW Moto Show. WOW I liked it, possible to put lower seat and shorter suspension strut from XB-12Sg due to me being vertically challenged? FAST IS FUN!!
