Buell M2/M2L Cyclone

Buell Motorcycles, headquartered in Grand Rapids, Michigan, was created in 1983 by ex-Harley-Davidson engineer Erik Buell. Harley-Davidson purchased a 49 percent stake in Buell in 1993, and by 2003, Buell had become a completely owned subsidiary of Harley-Davidson. Buell stated on November 17, 2006, that it has built and shipped its 100,000th motorbike.

Harley-Davidson announced the termination of the Buell product line on October 15, 2009, as part of its plan to focus on the Harley-Davidson brand. The final Buell motorcycle built by Harley-Davidson occurred on October 30, 2009, bringing the total number produced to 136,923.

Erik Buell announced the launch of Erik Buell Racing in November 2009, an independent company run by Erik Buell that initially produced race-only versions of the 1125R model, then offered an updated 1190RS model for the street or the track, and produced further improved 1190RX and 1190SX models for street or track use.

Buell Motorcycles announced in February 2021 that they will resume manufacture under the new ownership of Erik Buell Racing (EBR). Buell indicated that they will employ the superbike platforms built between 2011 and 2020 to expand their model line to about ten models by 2024. Touring, dirt, adventure, and cruiser versions will be available.

From 1997 until 2003, the M2 Cyclone was manufactured. It was positioned in the center of the Buell lineup, between the minimalist S1 Lightning and the more comfortable but heavier S3 Thunderbolt. The S1 Lightning was quicker and lighter than the others, but the seat was extremely narrow. The S3 Thunderbolt was a heavier touring bike with a larger seat and more comfortable riding posture. With a larger seat than the S1 Lightning and being lighter and quicker than the S3 Thunderbolt, the M2 Cyclone bridged the gap between sport and touring versions. The 1,203 cc engine and five-speed gearbox were the only options for the M2. The frame was made of CrMo steel tubing.
