Okay, sports fans, help me out here on the Fusion (sic) kit for Buell XBs. The two aspects of the Buell that were Definitely in need of improvement were the Engine and Transmission. Why would I want keep those? The two pieces of the 1125 R and CR which make them desireable are, you guessed it: Helicon engine and Straight-Cut gears in the Tranny, correct? What am I missing here?

I like the bike and wonder how much Suspension travel can this bike can have, I am looking at building Bike if I can find the right Frame for me and would put a S&S 100 ci Motor in it, I want a bike that is air cooled with 6″ to 7″ of Wheel travel front and rear with a nice Seat Height and low weight and plenty of cornering clearance,

the bike I have now is close to what I want but is watter cooled and not enough ground clearance, I have 6.5″ up front and 6″ in the rear, 400 LBS wet weight and around 135 HP at the rear wheel, I have owned 4 Buells and all had problems especially with the
Wheel Bearings and would not buy another one, I also had one that had the Oil Pump break at 6000 Miles so the S&S Motor is a must have and not cheap at 8K with out Transmission and other important parts but is air cooled and plenty of HP and TQ,

I like Waken’s Bike but at 45K and not much Suspension Travel it would not be for me, I am a Welder Mechanic but have no experience in Frame Building so if I can find the right Frame I can build my Dream Bike.

Trying to get more information on the kit? I went to the website but it wasn’t there and I’d really like to get some more information.

Kneeslider: Sportbike riders “move on”? I ride sportbikes and this is the nicest Buell conversion I’ve ever seen. I have been looking into doing just this! The only thing I would change is a very short rear fender. Good work, guys!
