Buell is campaigning a bike that is not available for sale to the general public and that is not street legal in the form that it is being raced.

In the past Yamaha, Honda and Kawasaki (I believe) have produced "Homogenization specials'' that are only manufactured and sold in street form so they can be raced. In fact, technically since this bike isn't being manufactured by Suzuki, they are still clean in my book.
