Referring to this one ?

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2009-BUELL-11 ... ed9&_uhb=1

Regardless of the mileage it is still a 5 year old bike - and having not been ridden lots could go wrong with it, and with no warranty to fall back on !

It's a 2008 model so it won't have the stator issue, the orange sealed wheel bearings will be shot before the tyres (which are 5 years old and will have degraded). The clutch will leak before it's done 8,000 miles. Who ever buys it will need to check the coolant level before they ride it, as the dealership won't have done it. Consider fitting the solonoid bypass resistor as essential preventitive maintenance.

It's still a lot of bike for the money and if I had the money I would seriously consider buying it. I miss mine.

This bike has been up for sale before... OK so it has no miles but is prolly an 08... If you check completed listings they need to be closer to 3/3.5 to actually sell.... :shock:
