first at all my compliments this is a bike that I dream from buell! I just book 1 and this is the best thanks that I can surely give to the company we had see a lot of material of bike development in a track , and really seems that the bike is developed for the track . 90% of us will use the bike out of the track where driving situation is totally different from the flat asphalt and the already know corners . we know that in the project buell reserve a very big attention to the comfort of the bike and fit the driver in a quite zone . did you can tell to us something about the road test ? | ||

The motorcycle was 99% developed to be a superior road motorcycle. Drivability, powerband, ergonomics, etc. are all focused on the street ride. Lots and lots of long term durability testing. But it is quite fast on the track, too. | ||

Will it be as fast in Italy as the USA? this is an interesting question cause that can have 2 meanings 1 I think means engine in european configuration will give the same HP? 2 in the end of 2005 me in a 50/50 bet with Harley Davidson dealer of Monza City (official support dealer of Tribu6800 our italian buell owner club) take the decision to take part of Italian 2006 supertwin championship , the faster bike is know from everybody here is Guzzi Msg01 with Guareschi 2 of them in competition and the other faster 2 was NCR millone ducati engine 996 and titanium frame is a race only bike 130 kgms dry wheight . so we decide to start we take an XB9 R we give the engine to Mteck the Hillbilly-motors engine wizard and we built the bike the bike was great the engine that hillbilly motors give to us was like a bull around 120 rwhp . our driver was very fast but very hard with the shift , destroy 5 times the gear in the test (1 on a mule xb12, 1 time on a test made in spain with an hillbilly motors bike , and 3 times on the racebike) before to start the competition so we give up ,every time to disassembly all the bike and the engine to change the gear to much time and to much money for us that we are poor guy . and we get no support from nobody only our finance . the project goes out of budget now with this new bike probably every thing is simple in this way and surely we will think to race it looking at the possible race that the bike will made . in 2008 we will see so maybe the bike will be faster in Italy as in USA  } I m sorry to bother you with this old story, but is part of passion that I have for buell (Message edited by nicozzzz on July 18, 2007) (Message edited by nicozzzz on July 18, 2007) | ||
