Default Destroyer

Has anyone actually bought or knows of anyone who has one of these?
Seems to me like it's been an expensive promotional gimmick instead of a profitable product. The dealer closest to me has had the same 06 on the floor since they got it. I think it's a cool bike but was it worth the trouble?

It's an out-of-the-box drag bike, I don't think it is street legal so the only place you should see one is on the track.

This Buell isn't street legal either but this picture was taken in front of one of the water holes in Hollister a couple weeks ago.
