Now that Buell seems out of the mix; my mind has been wandering. With the 1125r exposing me to Rotax I have liked what I have seen. So if Buell cannot do it the next best thing may be a Can-Am dirtbike. Ideas? Opinions? | ||

I am sure BRP will not comment on future product developments (if there are any) But it would be good to see. Bring on the dirty demo dealer days. | ||

If they could build one that ran as good as the old ones (comparatively speaking) I would buy it in a heartbeat!!! Only had the chance to ride one of them, but what a machine!!! Might be a little biased toward rotax since I have ridden Ski-Doo for the last 14 years | ||

I rode a 1980-81 from a Harley Davidson shop that sold them in Florida..when i raced mx...he was gonna sell me a cagiva 125mx..nice bike and i borrowed the Can-AM 400/370 MX team bike in 1986 and that bike still ripped...and wheelied crazy..rotax! i flipped it twice because of the abrupt powerband..bent the rear rails and fender! This was also modified for racing by an ex pro in florida i knew..They were ballsy bikes that won MX championships(Jimmy Ellis)in the 70's...So with Rotax..building engines for Buell..KTM, BMW, aircraft, Can-AM, Sea-DOO,etc...they could make an engine that ripped for Buell..lets not count that out yet!!!since I work with HD/Buell as a specialist..in Riverside, CA. |
