Have you seen this? An American bike they're planning on racing it on the World Superbike tour next year.

The specs are pretty incredible on paper. It will be interesting to see how it fares when it comes time to race. It's nice to see something from the the states out there.

No it is NOT the new Buell.... It is the new ErikBuellRacing (Hence the EBR on the tank). Harley made Erik sign a non-compete and they also owned the rights to the Buell brand and thus ErikBuellRacing was born. I guess he can build street bikes now. Originally he couldn't under the non-compete and only built race bikes but I guess that's expired now. Erik is a serious innovator and if that bike is making those kinds of numbers at only 400 lbs and change, that's a pretty serious heavy hitter. Will be interesting to see how it does. I really like it. I HATE the look of the brakes, but they work well. 185HP and 102 lbs of torque

Wonder what power plant its based off of?

I like the yellow one.

The brakes do look out of place, the stopping power may even a lil too much. For 19k I'm sure it has ABS though
