What Made Buell Illegal

[Super Dave]

Supersport is for 600cc inlines.  Buell's don't fit there no matter what.

You could build everything to have an XBRR.  Teams have already done it.  Some teams won't be buying one because they already did modifications, modifications that are allowed under the FX rules, that they essentially have an XBRR.

But it's less expensive for one to purchase a ready to go XBRR rather than to modify an XB12R.  Why is that wrong?

You think that when Honda America raced AMA Supersport that they actually used bikes that you could buy?  Or did they come from a secret factory?  That isn't under supersport rules.  Supersport rules are tight, but not necessarily enforced with the private rider in mind.  FX rules are liberal.  And they are more liberal for air cooled twins.

I heard from a fly on the wall that the bike will still have problems even finishing a normal length race let alone the 200. This is not a guess.

We will see.

:qouted from the AMA rulebook:

AMA Formula Xtreme Series

AMA Formula Xtreme are allowed the largest displacement engines in the AMA Chevrolet Superbike Championship and are based on production four-stroke street motorcycles. The motorcycles in this class must have the following engine displacements:

450cc-600cc multi-cylinder
595cc-750cc liquid-cooled twin-cylinder
850cc-1350cc air-cooled twin-cylinder    

:end quote:

you can go out and buy a 600rr then ride it home. you cannot ride a XBRR on the street.
 all being said, we know it is a limited production, factory superbike/FX machine that you could buy(if you have the connections). why not build this from a production XB12r? then there would be no grey areas.
 what about the fact that all the classes in AMA Pro RoadRacing are for street based motorcycles?
  to me, the XBRR is a GP bike, technically. as a matter of fact, this topic is up in the CRA right now.

if you had the $$ anyone could have bought one and road it home.

I heard that too.  And I agree.

I think there is the possibility that one could finish inside the top ten.  Not going to win.  Podium is doubtful, but I like the added flavor.
