The Bulldog is an aquired taste, Big engine relatively small in bhp but a bike with an attitude. The bulldog is no sports bike but it looks good, sounds good and despite its weight the bike handles well at low and high speeds. I think before you buy a road test is essential so you are in no doubt what you are getting.
My opinion after just over 6 months of ownership, I love it, its great fun and you do feel safe on it. Just as a bonus for an 1100cc engine you won´t get much less than 50 mpg which means with a 4 gallon tank you are looking at approx 200 mile range...
