"When we were talking to Jeremy (McWilliams) and some of the other test riders, I sat down with him and looked him in the eyes and said, ‘Okay, Jeremy, if some magic happens and we go World Superbike, what do we need?’ And he said, ‘Nothing but power, Erik.’ I said, ‘Okay, that’s what I wanted to hear.’"   Indy_bueller Posted on Tuesday, September 11, 2007 - 05:37 pm:        Saaaawwwwing!!!   Hughlysses Posted on Tuesday, September 11, 2007 - 07:44 pm:        "And working with Rotax was really cool –they’re very good, cool guys. Actually, the lead guy on this project is a guy who did his internship at Buell – he worked at Buell for about three years, a German kid who went back to Europe and went to work for Rotax. " Man, that's cool!   Thespive Posted on Tuesday, September 11, 2007 - 08:50 pm:        There are definately some hints in there... Great interview. --Sean   Naustin Posted on Wednesday, September 12, 2007 - 09:21 am:        Awesome.   Wolfridgerider Posted on Wednesday, September 12, 2007 - 09:42 am:        So..... how soon will the 1200 version be coming out?   Xl1200r Posted on Wednesday, September 12, 2007 - 11:15 am:        So..... how soon will the 1200 version be coming out? You don't really think they're going to reengineer that engine for another 75cc, do you?   Wolfridgerider Posted on Wednesday, September 12, 2007 - 11:27 am:        Reengineer....no....resleave maybe. If the CC limit on Superbike is now 1200cc I'm sure we will see a "BIG BORE KIT" coming soon.   Rainman Posted on Wednesday, September 12, 2007 - 03:32 pm:        I'm sorry, they never talk about future projects.   Barker Posted on Wednesday, September 12, 2007 - 04:28 pm:        What about the Durrdy bikes?   Wile_ecoyote Posted on Wednesday, September 12, 2007 - 04:42 pm:        Great interview, thank you for posting so I could read it too.   Hootowl Posted on Wednesday, September 12, 2007 - 05:22 pm:        From what I understand, this engine isn't sleeved, it is nicasil plated. No iron liners in there.
