2010 Buell Models push it to the limits



Ruthless for a Reason. Buell takes any path necessary to find more performance for the rider, even if it means walking all over current engineering doctrine along the way. The 2010 Buell Motorcycle Model Line-up pushes those limits to the max. Now see them all here on TMW. 2010 Buell Motorcycle Model Guide

Side Note:

You will notice the Blast! is gone for 2010. It's kinda sad to see it go, it brought new riders to the Buell lineup for them, people bought it, but for a Buell, it was pretty slow. (hence the B-Last nickname of it).

But, I think they should have replaced it with another 500cc bike.

While wasting time on the interwebz last night, I got a sniff of news (aka unsubstantiated rumor) that the Blast might still exist in 2010 - but not for retail sale under the Buell brand. IOW Blasts will still be made for supply to the Rider's Edge courses, but won't display the Buell logo and won't be available to the general public.

There is a certain cold logic to it- after all, they can't uses Sportsters in a Rider's Edge course - 550 lbs of bike is not for a raw noob.

Quite the interesting rumor, I'm sure it's true in a way. Buell most likely has old new stock Blasts around (since they have been unchanged since introduction) and that stock should last many years selling to just schools. Harley-Davidson does special sales of some of their models to resuce, fire, police, etc

I have seen the online ads where Erik Buell crushes the Blast. They're pretty funny.

IMO, there will be a Blast replacement sometime soon. Not sure what it'll look like, but they can't entirely cede the entry-level bike market to the Big Four.
