The first RR1000 prototype was built by Erik Buell as a commission from the Vetter fairing company in 1984. Initially conceived as a one-off project bike, it came to the attention of the [[Harley]] factory's race shop, which was searching for the means of updating the venerable early 1970s chassis of its Battle of the Twins road-racer. [[Buell]] converted the bike into a road-racer, and then developed it back into street form for series-production launch at the start of 1987. | The first RR1000 prototype was built by Erik Buell as a commission from the Vetter fairing company in 1984.
