Default beat a buell

Yeah just like the subjects says i beat a buell. I was driving to the bar to play some pool and i'm driving and i see this bike sitting at the light. I pulled up to the light and it turned green i didn't know he was going to race, but when he took off his bike almost stall so thats when i noticed the race and took off. i was ahead of him about a half a car length then i see him go into second and he pops a little bit of a wheely, but i'm still a half a car length and this is all the way thru 1st and 2nd. But then at the end of 2nd he give up when i popped it into 3rd. I know i probable wouldn't of beat him if he didn't almost stall, but i thought it was pretty cool that i ended up with the win. Then at the next light is where the bar is and i turned in and as i was turning he gave me a thumbs up.

nice kill. u kno if it was the 900 or 1200cc bike ?? the 12's are badass. the thing about the Buell's.......since Harley owns/makes them, they have unbelievable torque and one of the best handing bikes on the market. hands down. congrats on the win man.

Buells are not really very fast (in the bike world) but great job on beating him. I LOVE beating up on Harleys and 600cc sport bikes on the street, they always think that htey are baddass and hate it when a car hands them thier ***.

Hey someone else who ran a Harley. LOL I ran a guy after we both went blasting through a tunnel. We both had the same idea, wanted to listen to the exhaust blast. He must of seen me come up on him and at the next light we ran. He gave me the thumbs up which was cool.
