Here's what Buell should do...put a BIG harley clone motor in a minimal frame, make it pretty, make it outperform 600's. Bring the price inline with said 600's. Instant classic.
Wakan is attempting it. The bike you see weighs less than 400lbs and has a 115/115 S+S motor. Drool on the cool bits like the intake "blower scoop" and combo gas tank/seat support/mudguard.
Problems? - still developping, and 35, 000 !?!?!?! Could really do without the ugly exhaust pipes too, a buellish underslung exhaust would look good on this thing.
You can read Sir Alan Cathcart's long (winded) riding impression ( is it just me, or have the qualifications for knighthood gone alarmingly downhill in the last 100 years?) on the site.(Under the "Press" tab.)
