Well, it's been a tough decision but I bought the '09 Buell Ulysses XB12XT with 5000km (3000 miles) for $6000cda ($4800usd), no idea if that is good price but he is my best friend and business partner so I'm not about to haggle with him but it seems fair to me.
The Buell is just more comfortable and able to handle the bumpy country roads where I live (frost heaves play havoc in the spring). I was in far less pain after riding yesterday than when I do the same ride on the CB1100. At this point it is all about extending saddle time pretty much regardless of platform.
I love the CB, when I saw it for the first time it was like Honda had peered inside my head to produce the perfect motorcycle. I wish I could keep both but I just simply don't have the room or time for another motorcycle - I work 6 days a week and my garage is full of toys now that barely get used.
So as I promised my wife, for sale:
2014 CB1100A (Canadian) $75,000 or trade for a functioning space suit.
