Here the other thing, what would you say if it were Suzuki fielding an 1125cc machine in the 600cc class?

![]() Still, I would wager that the 600s are as close, or closer, to stock than the 1125R is. It really doesn't take much to turn a modern 600 into a Supersport race bike. That still doesn't explain why the Buell needs such a huge displacement advantage. ![]()

If Erik is right about what DMG was trying to do, the difference doesn't matter, the Buells will start getting weight added to them, didn't the same thing happen to Ducati in BSB? Oh, if you think their bikes are breaking the rules, get a bike, and file a complaint, or get a buell and start winning? |

If Buell built a solid race bike and won races with it in the proper class, I would certainly be excited to see them do it and give them props. They haven't. If suzuki started bringing built literbikes to 600 Superstock races and was winning, would you listen when people started touting about the bike and the brand and how great they are? Or would you laugh? I'm laughing at Buell. Quote:

I heard that the AMA dyno'd the top 10(?) finishers at Road Atlanta, and added 15#'s to the Buells.
So does that make you sissy girls feel better? |

No, we think it's hilarious the only way they can compete is to race against engines much smaller than their own. It's fucking hilarious at the complete and utter incompetence of their engineering department that they can't make an engine that large to compete on the same level as other people operating twins in that displacement range.
