This may be the biggest breakthrough bike in the last decade.  I'm impressed and excited.  Everyone knows Buell's handling is legendary, now that it has an engine to match... I'm speechless! Inlove

It's about freakin time!  Not much of a Harley guy but I have to admit I've been secretly rooting for Buell to get it right. This is America for pete's sake you'd think we could build a kick ass sportbike.

The word on BadWeB is that it's a Rotax engine. Buell's big 2008 announcements are on Monday. You can be sure I'll be checking their web site first thing in the morning. This could be The One.

The slipper clutch might be like the Rotax version found on Aprilias.  I'm guessing Rotax for the engine.

Did anyone else see the bit about 5+ gallon tank?  Being that was MCN, is that UK gallons?

Do it, Buell!

So, does this mean that Mr. Buell will finally quit spouting all that nonsense about how the Harley engine really was the engine he wanted to use?  It's not as though anyone believed him anyway.  Rolleyes
