Did you ever decide whether to replace yours with an Alp, Lee? If not, have you thought of a Triumph Tiger? More oomph, and though not quite as reliable as an Alp, it shouldn't pose any problems for a skilled engineer.

Yes, I got a 96 TA about 3 months ago.Once I got used to the lower power,I began to enjoy plodding about ( best term for AT ) .Although I miss the exileration of the Buell, I don't miss the vibration and constant cost of replacement parts.
The worst bit of the AT, is the weight,combined with a high seat and short legs,although the buell was tall,it wasn't top heavy.
On the whole I like the AT,and find any excuse to ride it.
