I was at GatorNationals today, a Buell came in second. It was my first drag race. It was fun walking in the pits, never seen anything like it where you can get up and close with everyone. I talked to one of the mechanics for a Buell team, but the only reason I knew it was a buell team was the Blast sitting next to the race bike and the Buell name tag on a 4-wheeler, there was no Buell anything, anywhere else. He said it was a v-twin, not sure how that makes it a buell though, he said it was about 2800cc and 350hp, I haven't seen anything in the store that big : ) He said the front end was from a buell.

Mitch, Did you look at the Suzuki's or any other bikes, all are nothing close to stock? Hell look at John Forces Mustang, do you think it is show room floor Ford stuff.

The fairing is a direct copy size wise of a R fairing. Granted no part is interchangable, but if you go to the S&S web site and look at the billet engine you can see the ancestry to the Sportster is there, vague but closer than the Vance and Hines engine is to the V-Rod

No, they don't look like street bikes, I have seen the drag bikes at dealers before, but I thought what made it a Buell or HD or Suzuki was the motor. Like 46champ said the fairing may have been the only part which resembled a Buell. They could have at least had a Buell decal : )

They were fun to watch though.
