Why didn't Eric Buell ever use the Vrod motor in his stuff. A real motor in a real chassis?

Oh wow! brings back memories just thinking about this. That too scary ones.
I rode the first time when I was 10 or 12, I don't remember exactly. Totally illegal. This was back in India, no helmet no safety gear. I had asked my then older friends about the theory of motorcycle operation. During my summer vacay, I was staying over at my dad's younger brother's (my uncle's) place. He had rented out a 100cc motorcycle called Hero Honda Splendor for a couple of months. He used to work overseas at the time. I was tall enough and walking around with the bike in neutral. Long story short, once I was comfortable with the weight of the bike, I stole the keys, went for a spirited ride through unpaved roads and ended up crashing. I had forgotten to ask my friends about brakes and braking techniques lol.
Between then and turning 18 (which is the legal age in India to get a license), I crashed at least two more times. Both the times could have been deadly but walked away unscathed. Not proud of myself at all but hell yeah, it was fun
