Fun Factor. The Buell® Blast is a machine that represents everything there is to love about sport riding. It’s lightweight, perfectly balanced and thanks to Buell Intuitive Design and Engineering,TM it’s also a very capable corner-carver.
Light Weight
At 360 pounds, it’s easy to toss around for both newbies and road veterans alike.
Suspension
The Showa® suspension provides a controlled ride without adjustment for people of just about any size or weight.
Belt Drive
Less time in the garage means more time on the road. The Kevlar® belt never requires lubrication or regular maintenance.
Exhaust
Exhaust cans are heavy. It doesn’t make sense to hang them up high and off the back of the bike. Our patented underslung exhaust concentrates the weight underneath the chassis. You know, where it belongs. It’s called Mass Centralization and it’s been a Buell® staple since 1985. You get a clean look, better handling and a slim profile that lets you squeeze into those tight little spots.
Fuel Tank
It holds 2.8 gallons of fuel. With the high price of gas and the bike’s unbelievable 72.8 mpg, you don’t have to be a genius to figure out the savings.
Brakes
Easy to reach. Easy to pull. Easy to stop. Plus, the clutch and brake levers reduce reach and effort for easier and more comfortable operation.
Engine
The 492 cc, single cylinder engine is the main reason why the Blast® could very well be the easiest motorcycle to ride on the entire planet. With its broad powerband and generous torque, the Blast® offers controllable power that encourages and inspires. You’ll spend less time shifting and more time focusing on that minivan that’s had its turn signal on for the last three blocks.
Low Seat
With a low 25.5-inch seat height, this option provides even more confidence.
Standard Seat
At 27.5 inches, it gives you comfort and confidence whether you’re riding it or parking it.
Bodywork
Durable Surlyn® composite body panels help the Blast® keep its good looks.
Dash
It’s everything you’d want in a clean, easy-to-read dash. No guesswork here.
