Back OT, Harley could've cultivated a whole new generation of riders, several times over, if they hadn't screwed Erik quite so comprehensively.
Marketed and supported properly, Buell could've been to Harley what AMG is/was to Mercedes. ____________________ Things get better with age; I'm close to being magnificent........

Well, 4 valves per cylinder and FI - so we're up to say mid 80s BMW technology.
But still using push rods and making around 50hp/litre... which is probably getting on for just post WW2 technology (seems about what an early BSA goldstar was making.)
Harely really isn't anywhere near the Jap's (and German's) 200hp/lt game with this bike . |

I'm surprised that they aren't using a sidevalve setup ____________________ trevor saxe-coburg-gotha:"Remember this simple rule - scooters are for men who like to feel the breeze on their huge, flapping cunt lips."
