I got to shake Mr. buells hand. I haven't washed my hand since. Am I crazy??? Just kidding but I did shake his hand.

check out this link to see my photo album of Daytona 06.

nice pics, that is cool you were there.
i never notice that the fairing was all closed up in the front, how do they get the cooling if it is all sealed up?

Oh yeah Daytona is 40min away from me. I think i'll be there every year from now on.

It's not completely closed up. I don't think cooling is really an issue with that bike going 100+ Mph. But i'm not all the sure about that. It also has a beefy oil cooler makes our stock ones look weak.

this may help you visualize the cooling scheme. this is the left side.
the front opening is for the oil cooler, the side is for the rear cylinder.

Erik let the engineers design it in the wind tunnel.
Not the styling department on the sales floor.

would be intimidating to look over your shoulder at 150mph and see that fat a$$ 999 right there
