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. Z |

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?? Z |

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. |
