Why would Buell need that huge ad to say that they will be dropping a bike of questionable reliability that nobody cares about?  They may be moving forward but they are still competing against 600s with a 1200cc bike in supersport.

huh? it's cycleworld...

and even if it was "american motorcyclist," the ama organization and ama pro racing are completely different entities.

pro racing is "ama" in name only.

I hope that helps solidify the link between  the special treatment Buell gets in AMA, and the real world.

Who cares that they dropped the blast, why advertise it? I have no idea... But why give millions to the AMA/DMG?

Its a crying shame

So what's the price of this cute numbered and signed coffee table?

Looks like there is a new logo and tag-line bottom right on that page too, "Ruthless Engineering"
"Ruthless Rule Bending" was another option presented by the marketing team but was quickly eliminated.

AMA rule bending aside, this might be a sign of things to come from Buell,
a sign to say we're done with HD's technology and we can expect more Rotax power in the future.

I was referring the "AMA magazine" in the ad.

I have just started to get into racing this year, sticking to WSBK and MotoGP.  I really had no idea that AMA org was different than AMA racing.  I guess I figured AMA was AMA.   I have been following a little of the AMA Racing drama, but can't even force myself to sit through the weekly reviews on Speed.
