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.  |
I thought homoligation just means that they make a certain number of them, doesn't really mean that they need to sell it to the public, and that as long as they build and offer for sale (even to race teams) the correct number of special bikes they can race them, even if they only sell them to teams.
Doesn't really help my train of thought but the zx6rr was a homoliganization special sold along side the 636.
