I test rode a Buell City-X about 18 months ago. I loved the riding position, the wide bars, engine and looks of the machine. I also remember it feeling very nimble and willing to do what I wanted it to. The transmission was absolutely terrible though; very notchy and hard to find neutral. I was dead set on a V-twin bike at the time. Considering the price they were asking, the transmission was unforgivable, so I bought an SV1000s instead. If I were going to do it over, I'd have to check out a Speed Triple. I really like the aggressive naked machines. The SV1000 doesn't have the looks of the Buell or the Speed triple IMHO. It has been a great machine though.
