A new version of the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.rotax.com\/\">Rotax<\/a>-built V-twin will displace 1190cc and spit out 185 rear-wheel horsepower. EBR claims that through use of high-quality chassis components and good diet and exercise, they were able to reach a fighting weight of 360 pounds (before the 4.6 U.S. gallons of fuel are added to the frame).<\/p>\n<p>The trick race-bred features keep coming, like a full titanium exhaust and valvetrain, multi-plate slipper clutch and straight-cut gear six-speed tranny. Chassis and suspension take the &#8220;tune to the moon&#8221; approach, with fully-adjustable Showa race suspension, variable rake and, therefore, variable wheelbase. Just off its championship victory in the 2009 <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amaproracing.com\/\">AMA Daytona Sportbike series<\/a>, Buell shows no sign of bowing out gracefully anytime soon.
