No it's not wrong a few Harley dealers have been saying for years they could sell that bike. |

are you kidding me? That is so bad ass. Anyone who says thats a bad idea is a moron. End of story. The tank is dumb though... but whatever. personally I think it looks a bit like a hack job, but the idea is right! |

I'd rather see this than another street chopper. I wouldn't do it to a Buell though, plenty of Sportys around for this kind of thing. (Message edited by 2003xb9r on January 13, 2013) |

That thing is an absolute lump of crap. The engine is rigid mounted into a stretched frame. With that wheelbase, it has to handle like a deep sea oil tanker. Last time I checked, Buells already came with 17" tires and wheels. With the seat and pegs set so far to the rear, you would have to lean forward to reach those wide dirtbike handlebars (total WTF ergos). He gets an "A" for effort but, I truly hope a tuber wasn't sacrificed for that turd. |

Having owned and built a few motards, the first thing that comes to mind is the weight. Motards do what they do with light weight. It is original but with all that weight from the motor and the compression braking, it would be awful on the track. I built a KTM 625SXC and owned a Husky SM 610, the Husky was very light and I rode a track built KTM 525 SMR. Light weight is necessary and a slipper clutch, neither of which I'm sure this bike has. However you have to admit, its original and would be fun to ride around town, all that torque would be a hoot. If they sacrificed a M2, it only makes mine more valuable. |

We seem to have different definitions of 'positive.' http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/messages/21/ 703072.html?1358437272 |
