I sat on the EBR at the past moto show... never really sat on a bike that light before, I'd love to see how it does at the track.

I've been trying to type a reply to this article for 5 minutes. Too many questions flying through my head.

I am guessing homologation for starters....I hadn't heard of it being an approved steed on any racing series list yet...

Are we going to start seeing Buells in India instead of the US? Homologation. Is Eric Buell going to be forced to convert to Hinduism?

it's been clearly demonstrated that those rules mean make the beast with two backs all if you're on a buell

Let's be fair, Harley has been getting happy endings from the AMA for nearly half a century.

All AMA/DMG (ever) wants is to get fans in the seats, viewers in front of the telly, and bikes rolling out the showroom door...most casual (probably nearly all) TV viewers probably think homologation has something to do with gay/lesbian lifestyles and just want the 'Merican bike to win.
