Hmmmm.... don't know about you, but i see an Italian Lawsuit just waiting to happen.

And i think the bike could use a lil more power 120 HP / 75 lb feet torque.

looks pretty close to an MV


there are a few US manufacturers working on concepts

i personally would love to see someone in the US make a competitive sportbike

:dunno:

They did pretty good getting it down to 425 lbs with that motor in it. There is allot of after market stuff for that engine and it can be built up to around 180 HP and still run pump gas and be fairly durable, so there is some potential for it.

Wow only $7,999 for a 77HP bike. I just dont see either one of these bikes being able to make in this market.

There was a website that did a writeup on that Fischer bike a while ago that posed a few good questions, one of which was whether or not it is truly "American" made. When the writer inquired with Fischer regarding a potential purchase, he was given an obscene delivery time (7-10 WEEKS), and informed that "some assembly is required," and that the bike arrives in a crate.

While Fischer did not explain the delays, the writer could only figure that the bike was being shipped direct from a factory overseas, likely near the Hyosung factory that supplies the motors.

So much for "Made in America." More like, "designed in America, made overseas, then shipped back to America."

:dunno:

Is it just me, or does the rake on that bike look INSANE?! That's way more than the 24-degrees stated by their specs!

WTF?!:shocked:

What about the MotoCzysz C1? Technically not for sale yet but definatly American Made.

I've always like the look of the Fischer the best. I like the front end design of the MotoCsyz, but am not a fan of the engine design. What I'd REALLY like to see is a American "Bimota" or Ecosse made here in the states built around a Gixxer 1K or ZX10 motor. Think about a 1K motor, build with a Ti billet-plate and tube frame (Ecosse) and some carbon-fibre bodywork with Ohlins and Brembo's on it!:) That would totally rock.

[JustSomeDude]

Is MotoCsyz pronounced "MotoShizz"?

If not, it should be. Fo' shizzle.

I'm liking the way the new buell is looking, not that I would ever get one. Can't go wrong with a Rotax engine. Aprillas use the Rotax too.

The only thing "Made in America" anymore are Honda (Ann Arbor, MI) Nissan (Detroit) and Toyota (Torrance, CA). Crazy how that all worked out....

[I`m Batman]

They totally copied Yamaha! :lol:
Seems to be the popular answer around here when a new bike comes out. :P

[JustSomeDude]

I think Buell needs to make those headlights bigger. The upper cowl too!

:shock:

[Mother Goose]

That Roehr makes me think of Romper Room........ I see Ducati, and Yamaha, and MV and.....

I really doubt they would have a case. There are so many bikes that look like so many other bikes these days. No exposed tube frame, has side mount radiators, etc etc etc. There are so many differences in apperance.

Weird..... I was made in Lincoln, Nebraska. And I had Kawasaki Disease. :crazy:
