From the Article
“I told him that I was putting forth the money and the effort and I just needed their approval. Two weeks later, he called me and said the people who own Buell, which is Harley-Davidson, told them we were already too fast and they couldn’t approve the body to run in NHRA.”


Too fast? Isn't that the point??}

VRod team (HD/who are a NHRA sponser) like to keep the competition (Suz./S&S Buells) in check. S&S Buells flying at Englishtown this weekend.

WTF? That's just bogus. Some sort of power trip by proxy going on there?

IIRC the Buells are already heavier than the VRods and a lot heavier than the 'zuki's (by like 20 plus pounds)

Sounds like a good discussion at Homecoming. "loved" the article when they quoted Henry "Duca" and "Eric" Buell

Henry "Duca" and "Eric" Buell are Erik Buell and Henry Duga's evil twins. They are the reason we just got a water cooled Buell.
We would have had one years ago but those two jerks kept holding things up.
