The EPA/DOT list scrolls down to other model years. I scrolled down to the 2018 list. The engine for the 2018 Buccaneer is (as you already knew) manufactured by Lifan, and is listed as the same model. So, you will be able to theoretically obtain replacement parts and/or engines via American Lifan.
Right you are, Culcune.

I found a lifanmotos.net page referring to a "Lifan Lycan V16," here:

www.lifanmotos.net/News/activity/2018-10-30/76.html

showing that the Lycan and the V16 are the same bike, as you suggested.

Also, confirming your EPA/DOT finding, the same engine model number, 2V49FMM-P, is stamped on the left side of mine. Good news!

It is amazing how different the same engine looks in the Lycan compared with the Buccaneer. I wonder if all that chromed cladding is metal or plastic.
