Apologies if this has been discussed previously but I'm not at all sure this is what it says it is. Anybody know if this is/was a genuine RR1000 racing Buell?

I ve been watching this bike before the seller bought it trough Bonhams. And thgere is always the same problem they thinkk its an ultra rare original race bike instead of an rr parts file with a lot of original parts ( which I have :-) missing. So not for me this time, perhaps next time

So, it's a bitsa that raced in the BOTT series in Europe. And in 50 years, someone will care.

Thanks, I'm not at all convinced there is much Buell DNA in there.

you guys here in the States don't know the history behind this bike and CR&S, so you cannot appreciate this item.
we, in Italy, have discussed and heard a lot about it and believe me, we all would love to have it in our garage!

this was the first Buell ever imported in Italy, talking about 1991-1992.
I'm trying to find the story of this bike and some documents, it'll be in Italian though.
gimme a little time and I'll "enlighten" you.
