Sounds like it could be fun and its close-by, but they won't let me play. Chris(Amer. Iron editor) says the insurance costs too much for my kind of bike. But you stuff a 145"+ engine into a bike and thats OK!

Nice bike, VR!

I'm surprised I havn't seen more pics of it posted around the Web. It's one of the best looking Buells I've ever seen.

Can you provide some details about it?

Thanks in advance.

Yes,turboed Buells are alot of fun.Mine went 177 HP and 125 ft/lbs for the 1450 motor with more in it.Have not had the 1250 motor dynoed yet,but just added a bigger turbo and am installing nitrous for this year at the Salt.

Steve M. I have not found the big power like FMJ. Not even close. But its still fun. Like FMJ said , if you do a search of "VR1203" you'll get more reading/pics than you care for! Dago, yea I was disappointed that this mag editor just blew me off. I guess you need to have a chopper to rate!
