Isn't that the one with the plastic like belt driven chain instead of metal? Theres a guy on yahoo answers just above this question, and he says he had all kinds of problems with his Buell.He said the tension wasn't right on the belt and when he opened up the cover he saw all kinds of crumbly broken plastic!!??I don't like the idea of a plastic belt driving me about 60 miles an hour lol...I'll stick with metal thank you very much.I also heard they ride awesome and look awesome but the maintenence is on the high side compared to other bikes.

Me me me!!! Mine has been running like a top. Other than an initial problem the bike has been great. Never fails to put a simile on my face.
