It pretty badazz looking, definitely a sexy machine. But why tear down a Buell! Taking an awesome bike and destroying it. And what the crap is up with the headlights, all that flipping work and finish off with "off the shelf fog lights from Pep boys" looking lights. And plagiarize Confederate's headlight scheme! Well at least there putting ugly fog lights on a 20k bike rather than an 80k Confederate bike! |

Wonder if the idler pulley is in the correct location to maintain constant tension? Keith |

Since the engine pulls the belt tight under acceleration why would you put the idler on this side, just take make sure it is extra tight...WTF? Then take you old roller skates and throw it in place on the wrong side of the belt. Just does not make good sense to me. I am not to sure about the bolt together frame either. Are Buells the cheapest V-Twin power plant these guys can pick up? I understand wanting a Harley engine to have an American powered bike but at some point cost has to factor into it. |

I think they look for the Buell donors because the engine is already cammed for performance. |
