    Sixes are junk for a bike. Eights aren't any less retarded than anything else Buell ever did.

    You don't see six piston calipers for sale muh, or in high level racing. Bit like Buells. Funny that.

    Yip, the front of a Buell is perfect example of why no one should try and re-invent the wheel. It cooks brakes!

    Mate, if that's only half fucked you better put it in a bag to finish the job.

    Next year. Not sure if I'll take it over. Al' and I will be doing it on the sidecar, and we'd like to actually go fast.

    If Al' is taking his solo over, I will too.
