It appears that Amazon is now fully stocked and shipping! Someone please post here when you receive. Dave will likely make mention of this when we appear on the TODAY show.

: )

It's a joke folks . . .

Waiting quite impatiently for mine from Whitehorse. Shipped 6 days ago and was hoping to have it already. Oh well next time I will pay for faster shipping I guess.

We're having gold stickers made to emblazone the front of the book. . .

"Currently among the TOP 141,000 titles"


I blame Dave in a way for the book languishing in 141,093th place. . . The day he cut my chapter where Erik takes the single cup of yogurt and a Hershey bar and feeds the entire population of Americade . .. now that was history that would have sold!

And . . you never saw Dave and I lock Congress up and try to squelch the will of the people to do what's right and use common sense.

Although . . . Dave once duplicated a coupon for a FREE Big Mac on a color copier . . . and the guilt still haunts me that I knew and went along with it.

Court & Dave,
I finally received my book yesterday, and nearly read it all last night. It is definitely a book I couldn't put down.

The layout is nice, the pictures are stunning, the "side stories" offer interesting "detours" along the way. A really great read for those who want to know more of the story behind these machines we choose to ride & love.

Now get busy on the next one! I need more reading material.

Well I think you are going to see a boost in sales. My google search for Buell motorcycles has been popping up links to plenty of forums this week referencing the book. Apparently Motorcycle News put out some release on it and now its all over. Great book again. Read it twice.

Hey guys, if you like posting a review on Amazon would help us out with sales.

If you didn't like it you should of course remain silent ;O)

Joe, I agree... Check out the S1 on page 84. I like the heat shield on that bike.

Frank - looks a little bulky, but very effective. I'm partial to the "Blast" on page 90 myself. Hmm....could be a winter fuel miser project? : ) I wonder how they performed overall with the thumper engine in the S1 frame....were they too heavy to get out of their own way? Or did it work OK?
