With the dudes?
So, when DMG offers a Harley specific class for these bikes and others like them...
DMG spec class-----when hell freezes over.

Already been done in the AMA before... Was a really neat program, actually.
What are they trying to do?
Insult Eric Buell.
And how about the Wakan Harley...

Why should he be insulted? He's got bikes that fit into a current and potentially new classes, don't you think?
Yes Dave, in the early 90's the AMA did run those, and yes the Bostroms, Mike Hale, Nigel Gale and assorted others ran the class. And yes they too frequently left various things on the track--no belly pan rule back in the day. Most other classes really hated being the next group out.

Yeah, guess I was thinking inside the box.
I don't know what class it will fit in, but the 1125R is one serious machine.
I will really get worried when I see Buell come out with a "Rocker"
:lmao:

Yeah, but I never fell down in that oil from the Harley's. It was always the oil from regular ol' Japanese bikes that caused me problems.
I couldn't find a dealer to work with on the project of doing it at the time in Omaha.
Good point, now we see why everybody requires enclosed belly pans.
Well, there was a time when we raced with OEM bodywork. There weren't too many options for aftermarket stuff. The belly pan thing started to hit around 92 or 93, as I remember it.
Riders are still bone heads and crash very well without oil. I know... :spank:

Beautiful. Thanks for the pics.
Dave, not 92 or 93, was running the AMA EBC pro endurance series. I admit to olling canada corner at road america, Oil ,all body work, tank, entire front end. Thank the Lord for the 'B' bike. Setting pole vault records sucks.
Two Brothers had those lowers. I had Sharkskins & Beasley, and they were open. Commonwealth had warranty OEM plastic painted up for a while yet. I can't remember when it finally became mandatory, but, to me, it hasn't been terribly long. Might not have been until 2001 or 2002 for CCS.
Nice looking H-D. i'd ride it.

Because it's worked out so well in the past....
Let's see, an affordable class of AMA Pro racing. Ample dealer and factory support for privateers. Close competition. And it launched the careers of previous unknowns like Jake Zemke, Aaron Yates, and Ben and Eric Bostrom and many more.
Yeah, that pretty much sucked.
...with, um, crap, what's his name?
