  • I don't know why Mr. Buell doesn't just go it alone with the engines he designed with Rotax . He already has a loyal following and an established Brand name . Screw Harley Davidson !

  • You know.... you can always tell a squid when they start quoting stats. +95% of all sport bikes never even see a track. (according to Kawasaki's figures) And the slight performance differences in almost any sport bike (even 3-4 year old ones) are really only noticable when racing at a track. Who cares if this bike or that bike is a couple of 10th's faster here or there? Besides, ultimate performance wasnt the reason behind the Buell's design anyway.

  • @seroyer2 i here the rotax motor is made in japan

  • @MNel86 It's not just about aesthetics man, they're fully functionaly intakes.

  • @yourleftnut1 Ain't a cookie cutter Jap bike. Great, because some people don't like to ride the same shit as everyone else.

  • ugly @ss bike.. slow too.

  • @JDSFLA We can only hope . It would have been better all around I think if they had just built the bike Erik Buell himself admitted they should have been building. I'm speaking of the Barracuda Model which looked more like a conventional sport bike but had enough Buell signature traits that everybody would know exactly what it was, A True American engineered Sport Bike. That bike may have spooked H-D leading them to believe that it would out sell any of its more modern models namely the V-Rods.

  • @WatchToddPattison He had to sign a one year non-compete contract with H-D and until the year is up he is confined to his race bike business. I'm hoping that he will soon get involved with street bikes again soon - maybe with Polaris who wanted to buy Buell from H-D, but H-D prefered to kill the deal and destroyed the dozen motorcycles built to succeed the 1125R.

  • THOSE INTAKES!?!?!?!?! So fucking dumb looking. The whole bike looks like something from the 80's just dumb. Love that buell is going with Rotax though....

  • trash

  • "First of a series we'll see over the next comming years" Yeah thanks HD!
