It's been 45 years since I rode it and my memories are probably very biased, but I remember it as being tonnes of fun, and a bit scary (and shaky) at 70 mph. It didn't have a counterbalancer, so It vibrated something awful.
It is the reason why I went back to a big single
And if I could ever find another I would be tempted to re-mortgage the house to buy it.

And thanks Serow, I had already found that illustration, but a photo proves that they still exist.... somewhere.

Reply #5 - 07/15/13 at 08:16:04 Arteacher You checked out the ones that are being made now ? They have real front brakes ! I'd have one now but they are geared to top out at 85 or so , and the rear sprocket is made into the rear hub thingie But I love the way they look !

Reply #7 - 07/16/13 at 04:26:35 Yea the new ones are an entirely different beast, in 2009 they reengineered the entire engine which is now a UCE design. They are daily drivers with occasional wrenching compared to the old Bullets which were drivers only if you were wrenching LOL.
