The Buell Firebolt is a rebellious creation from Erik Buell’s workshop, marrying innovative design with a potent Harley-Davidson engine in a sleek, sportsbike chassis.
Under the hood lies a 45 V-twin powerplant with a curious mix of traditional and modern technologies – air-cooling and pushrod overhead valves paired with advanced fuel-injection. This unusual blend yields impressive results: a muscular soundtrack and effortless acceleration.
Riding the Firebolt is an exhilarating experience, thanks to its razor-sharp handling and sublime chassis dynamics. The hollow aluminium frame and dry-sump engine combine to deliver exceptional lightness and agility, while the Showa suspension provides a compliant, well-damped ride that absorbs bumps with ease.
