Pics of the new Buell and a quick review

FT BSTRD · 10-25-2009, 09:33 AM

I don't think anyone is making any excuses for either Buell power plant here (or the ZTL brakes).

The engines are just different.

You know what is interesting about your first graph? The Buell is the ONLY air-cooled bike in that line up. Almost like someone WANTED to show Buell in a bad light. That couldn't be right, though, could it?

Why not compare the Buell against OTHER air-cooled bikes? Talk about "apples to apples".

You also do understand that those charts are showing HP not Torque, right? I think that was the original point.

I have two engines. One that has a displacement of 5.7L and one that has 3.2L. Which one makes the most HP? Which one makes the most Torque?
