I sincerely hope these folk are able to make this happen as I'm tired of the only U.S option being a cruiser or cruiser based sport bike. Buell was just getting going. Motus looks very promising
@DarlaDeeRae Buell is sill around! Erik Buell Racing builds some incredible bikes. Especially now that they've been liberated from those stone age lump of shit Hardly-Dangerous motors!
I am the dyno operator....this was done at TT Motorcycles (Ducati, Aprilia, MV Agusta, Moto Guzzi, Vespa and Piaggio) just north of Detroit. The chassis dyno is a Fuchs with eddy brake. These runs were simply a shakedown, going easy to verify good function of the drivetrain. Upshifts were at about 4500-5000rpm, I usually was running against a simulated 4% grade and made runs thru the gears at fixed 25, 50% throttle settings. As time went by, the smiles started to get bigger.
Love to see it become a reality. A fully competent, modern, American-built sport-touring bike, with a character that avoids the hackneyed, outmoded cliches of the cruiser template, but nonetheless draws on the soulful heritage of the American machine. May it come to pass.

.At 161 hp that is pretty good. Whats the rev range on the bike ?
ylism 7 months ago
It put out 160 for both. Considering that it's only a 100 cid or 1.6 liter v4, that's pretty good.

I guess it didn't put out much hp and torqe since your not boasting about it.

Looks good. As a Ducatista I'm glad to see the dyno rider's allegiance!
