Since the beginning, Buell's operating philosophy has been to align bike and rider in a bond designed to withstand the tests of time. The very first Buell bike - the RW750 "Road Warrior" - was built to compete in the AMA Formula One class, commanding respect with powerful handling and speeds that clocked 178 mph at Talladega Speedway. The 2021 debut of the Hammerhead 1190 and 1190SX draws on that same heritage, carrying the company's original ideals forward to represent Buell as a brand today.
