Some nice touches on it though. I like the rim-mounted disks. Brake ducting for cooling is a bit 90s, and the caliper seems wrong - is it even radially mounted? It's hard to see from the pics.

The claimed power is still about 10bhp off what it should be, and 20bhp off what it needs to be for that price! $39,999

Interesting that Buell (if you can call it that, it's an EBR after all, rather than a "mass-produced" Buell...) are making sports bikes and Ducati are making cruisers now? :lol:
