Re: Speaking of

i predict lap times comparable to Nick Hayden Honda, slightly slower than M1 yamaha.

if wished were horses, beggars would ride

Where can I put money that none of them will even finish?

Re: O yes Buell's first big win...

I guess that Formula Extreme is a good spot for these tractor motored bikes. I guess it is fair for a 1200 cc tractors to run against 600 cc motorcycles.

Hey, Eric, different is not necessarily better. Put a real v-twin in that frame and you might actually have something. How much fuel do those things use?

I will not be rooting for them at Laguna. I go to Laguna every year and you can count the number of HD one one hand. Roadracing is all about performance, acceleration, cornering and braking, not posing.

I won dinner for two on a similar bet over Daytona. But I think they willl finish a sprint race. Maybe in the top ten for McWilliams. Of course, I am probably wrong. Its at least an even bet none will go the (short) distance.

Rossi will probably be riding one in MotoGP next year. It will have frame sliders on the pushrod tubes.

Keep it up, this is the kind of thing that makes first glorious victory all the more SWEET!

Re: Speaking of

Rossi said the buell pit guys have an attitued because it's not a "real" harley.

I can't speak for the racebike, but the production XBs get excellent fuel mileage.

Considering that the XBRR doesn't hold a ton of fuel, I'd guess that it's not a huge consumer.

Re: O yes Buell's first big win...

Let's get it out of the way.

-V-twins suck

-Buells has a tractor's motor

-Buell is cheating

-They shake too much

-Anything under 150hp is a crap streetbike

-I won't buy one until Buell puts in a (insert japanese engine here)

-This is their first year racing, if they do not succeed and win every race they should hang it up as I will not buy a bike that can not win races because I have an inferiority complex and a small *****.

Re: Speaking of

Imagine Valentino in "assless" chaps. Oh, the horror.

(I guess he'd have to give up his pit lane crotch-wedgie-extraction ritual.)

I'd say that about covers it. Lock the thread.

Re: O yes Buell's first big win...

Re: O yes Buell's first big win...

anyway, i think i couch it for Laguna this year, speedtv listing Czecho world superbikes, US MotoGP, ama superbike, supersport, superstock and FX on the 23rd. Anybody want to take my wife someplace that day? I will throw in a hundred bucks...

Re: O yes Buell's first big win...

Did you call Buzglyd ?

 

[56599]

What you think it can do a quarter mile in I need it for my kPPI calculations.

Do you have a guess? I am figuring 10-10.5 secondss

 

[56599]

I am going to guess 10.8 seconds

I'll give it a break.. figure it about as fast as a 600.

 

[56599]

Re: O yes Buell's first big win...

Ok I assumed 10.43 seconds in the Quarter mile and calculated a kPPI of 88.51 for more kPPIs click user info.

Re: O yes Buell's first big win...

I love my tractor powered Buell Ulysses. Nothing runs like a Deere. It's a beautiful looking bike. Handles like it is on a rail. Great gas mileage. Comfortable too. All you Buell complainers have no idea. I'll take a bike anyday where all I have to do is put gas in it and change the oil now and then. The only place you jap bikers can even utilize those high revs is on a track. No tracks in Nebraska. Plenty of you sport bike beechez that look like meerkats poking your heads up in the air because of that rod up the arse riding position. Cheers and bring it on ya puassies.
