Buell Hammerhead.
I want to like that it's happening. Hell, I want to love it. I REALLY REALLY do. But it's getting worse:(
Frankly hard to watch. And impossible to listen to.
Not only is that NOT a "New Buell", anyone who thinks it is, is delusional. It was outdated when new and unchanged 8 years later is a lifetime in the hyper sports world. Add a 6-axis IMU, ride modes, ride-by-wire, wheelie control, slide control, etc, and MAYBE they have a chance to have an 'Exciting new product, blah blah'.
Barrett is 100% right:upset::concern: **** music and no info are a tease from 10 years ago, which is apro-po for that old bike I guess. I don't see how this will end in any way other than a stain on Erik Buells legacy and one more thing for people at a 'bike night' to get the story wrong about.
From back in February and IMO a fair assessment.

I'm curious how a decade old engine is going to fair with Euro 5 regulations, or are they just going to ignore every market outside the US?
America first. The end.
That is a very good point. Euro 5 focuses a LOT on engine noise, not just exhaust noise and the EBR is LOUD. A little better than a 1125 IMO, but the valve train and clutch basket are well... not 'refined' sounding.Quote:

If you think similar regulations wont be making their way here in the near future then perhaps you should see if Buell is hiring.Quote:

SOP for the .gov is that I.C.E. won't be made 'illegal' because that would cause a backlash. Just regulated to the point of extinction, as usual.
Annoy and inconvenience it to death:(
