Yep, Buell have a long history of dodging homologation for different/new models by using the same designation for variant model/types.
The true S1W is all white....clue is in the name :idea: .....subsequent models were built using left over parts due to demand, they were unofficially called 'strikes'....exactly the same spec but in a variety of colours.
EG. there's plenty X1's that are described as S1's on the log book :lol:

Nope, in fact I reckon the Nuc blue frame/wheels with white bodywork is probably the best looking combo for an S1 8-)

Anyway, Mr Head,

You've only just joined us, and I'm not quite sure you've grasped the purpose of the "for sale" section. Traditionally it's where people who are beginning to doubt their passion for Buells post a for sale notice, and the rest of us try to talk them out of it, with a high success rate I might add(which may or may not be related to the fact that Buells aint easy to offload ;) )
