Reading does wonders Limited...LMAO

The future bikes will have front and rear carbon fenders, and will be totally road legal. The Frame kits will include: frame, seat, rear shock, swing arm, oil tank, and gas tank for $4,500. For less than $10,000 a person can build their own w/ the purchase of a donor Buell. We will build the complete bike “road legal” for $19,500 and there are always the options of whatever you could think of i.e. carbon wheel, S&S motors, front ends and Ti frames

All the more reason to keep buying up the tubers and keep them all for ourselves. Keep these a-holes from making yet another mutant.

I wonder if it is as good as a Buell, or maybe just different?

Best looking so far but I really gotta question the idler roller on the drive belt.
It really looks out of place and a source of problems.

Brad - that's a frame slider if I'm not mistaken.
Maybe the photographer did that to get the belt away from the swingarm pivot...
Interesting bike, at least it MIGHT handle OK.

You are mistaken Zac! The swingarm has been lengthened, that means the handling is not as good...but marginaly.

I stared at that pic for a while... guess you're right.

Not a very good solution in my eye...
That can't be good for the belt??

If it's a static idler. no, hard on the belt. If it's a mobile idler, then its good for the belt, but more moving parts that can fail or become worn or dirty, and require maintaining.

It's a sexy looking machine though, proof that the Buell engine is a great platform for any type of development.

Belt changes look really simple on that bike though. I would run a chain on it anyways.
