Only one on the front, but look at the size of the one on the back.

Hellooooo. It's a fucking dragbike. Why don't you ride a Street Rod and see how Harley (Brembo) brakes work.

Yeah, sure. Just whack another couple of kilograms worth of steel on there when it isn't necessary.

Lots of weight on the rear + skinny wee front tyre + massive square rear tyre = screamin' eagle thingo.

motor is too heavy for a buell which is why they are based around a sportster engine

i think itd be awesome if buell got involved with aprilia or as some said ducati, now there would be some awesome bikes. but the whole "pure american" image would go down the plug hole

Dunno Lou, when a UK test reports low 9 quarters on a stock 'Screaming Eagle VRod Destroyer' I'll believe it.
I've seen too many US claims of fantastic times that you can't reproduce.

The Vrod engine is too big for the Buell, not too heavy.

Eric Buel did once ask John Brittin to suppy motors, but John declined
