Thinking about getting a motorcycle

Ok, so the bug has hit me again, and there isn't much I can do about it.  My wife, of all people actually suggested that I get one to save on gas money back and forth to the office.  So, now, I have a quest.  To locate a great starter bike, and give it a try.  I am pretty set on getting a Buell Blast.  Why Buell?  For one, they are an American Made product.  They are built in the East Troy Wisconsin plant.  Buell is also owned by Harley Davidson, another great American Motorcycle product.  The Blast seems like it would be a good starter bike.  Its just under 500cc, is very road capable, and weighs in at about 360 pounds.  Now, the hard part!   Trying to find one has been an arduous task.  Neither of the dealerships near me have any in stock, new or used.  The new 2009 models just came out, so maybe they will get a shipment in soon.  I can't wait.

For more info on the new models, or Buell itself, check their website.
