NICE BIKES but not my cup of tea. Last one I road I crashed…to top heavy for me. I feel like my center of gravity is a lot higher on those.
BTW, dont ever dent the “frame”. Im sure you know but if you dont the frame is hollow and thats where the gas is stored. replacing that is $$$$$$$ and will salvage the bike.
Also, sliders on these are bad to since it will send the force into the “tank”.
Lower swing arm is hollow…oil is there

What kind of position is the upper body when you are on the bike?

It’s actually fairly upright, the Scg is the low model so it has a lower seat and suspension which I actually find to be the perfect ride height for me. I looked at the HD sporster low and my knees hit the grips on turns because of the low seat and mid controls, so I made a total 180 and got the bike I’ve always wanted.
For those of you who arent familiar with buells, the red part isnt the gas tank, its the air box. The airbox and the front fairing, if you can even call it that, are translucent red. It comes in black, or translucent red, blue or an orange/yellow color.
Another cool feature is the adjustable dampening of the suspension on the front and rear to adjust to the rider weight and adjustable setting the spring preload on the rear. Buell is very into the handeling on this bike, its a detailed system.
