2007 Buell XBRR Harley Engined Production Race Motorcycle

My love of riding what I term “Anvils” has carried me on the frames of many older and what some people would refer to as “antiquated” rides. Most have been air-cooled BMW’s. some of which have genuinely surprised riders. others reacting with phrases such as “There goes a garage sale looking for a place to crash”. There is an extremely satisfying feeling of using an outdated Engine as a basis to build a quick and sometimes surprisingly fast motorcycle. With that that explanation. please do not think me out of plumb for lusting after this particular bike. the 2007 Buell XBRR Production Race Motorcycle we have here at the shop. In 2006 Erik Buell announce he was building 50 Production Race Motorcycles for Privateer use that would be competitive and capable of winning under the terms of the AMA Formula Extreme Class created for 550cc-600cc 4-stroke liquid-cooled 4-valve four cylinders. nbsp; 650cc-675cc 4-stroke liquid-cooled 4-valve three cylinders. 650cc-850cc 4-stroke liquid-cooled 4-valve twin cylinders. 990cc-1100cc 4-stroke air/oil-cooled 2-valve desmo twin cylinders. 990cc-1200cc 4-stroke air/oil-cooled 4-valve pushrod twin cylinders and 900cc-1350cc 4-stroke air/oil-cooled 2-valve pushrod twin cylinders. At 1. 39cc. the Buell Thunderstorm V-Twin had what it took on paper to be class competitive and at cost of $30. 95. was finically within reach of riders looking for to level the field with the Factory teams. The design was Buell’s patented mass-centralization study of placing the fuel in the main frame of the bike and carrying the engine oil from the dry sump Harley engine in the rear swing arm. All of this led to the lowering of the center of gravity. reducing the resistance to direction change by centralizing as much mass in a manner that makes turning an extension of your thought process.

The bikes did not finish the race despite qualifying in the top ten. Things broke. but they always break the first year. that is what going to Daytona does. it finds and breaks anything that is not up to the task. This bike was originally owned by Harley Davidson of Fredricksburg on the east coast of the US. They raced it during 2007 and it was the #2 bike for their racer Brian Bemisderfer. In 2010 it was bought by it’s present owner who was going to race it in the lightweight Twins class in Utah and also running it in Sounds of Thunder which is a AHMRA class. While on the Dyno at Harley Davidson in SLC the crankshaft let go. It had not even been to the track. Two sets of crankshaft parts were obtained and sent to John Hoban of Darkhorse Crankworks who built and balanced a new crank. The motor was then sent to Latus Harley Davidson in Portland Oregon and they rebuilt the engine. Since then the bike has set in an office on static display. It is fully race prepped and starts immediately and runs nicely. It has not been to the track. It is modified with: Burns race muffler. STM Slipper clutch. Brembo master cylinder and a Penske rear shock. It was fitted with a starter motor and lightweight lithium battery but also comes with the hand held remote starter. Included are e 3 or 4 different rear sprockets and a 1 tooth smaller front sprocket. a new primary chain and one or two cylinder head temperature sensors. Included also is all of the data acquisition tools and CD’s. receipts for parts and labor for recent work and some minor spares. The bike has never been registered. having been issued an MSO by Buell when sold new originally. The MSO will be supplied to the new owner or an Oregon title created. which ever is desired.
