Knowing HD prices I would say it looks more like a $3000.00 meat grinder to me

What the friggin heck is that?

Is this a joke?

Surely they do not need gears that friggin wide to take power from their engine to the gearbox? ... look how narrow the gearbox gears are/would be.

No body should be able to race with exposed gears like that anyway ... and talk about inefficient.

If this is for real, I'm definitely no longer interested in Buells!, and I was sort of half interested, cause they are different (over here).
