I know they're rare beasts but anyone know approximately how many Buells there are now out there in the world? 100,000, 200,000....?

100,000 in 20 years I believe. #100,000 was a Uly built in '06 if I am remembering correctly.

In total as of last year it was about 4000 bikes annually.

Again, I could be wrong. This is just what I've researched myself.

So, yea, they are rare.

Just a guess.

Um, Court. I don't think 11-17-07 has happened yet. Do you mean 11-17-06?

You are SOOOOOOOOOOOOO right . . . see what I get for reading my t-shirt in the mirror?


100,000th Shirt


Okay . . . funny story, real quick, then back to work . . . I was at M.I.T. for a week doing a Buell project in 1997 (which by the way was spectacular and never got made public . . remind me to tell you . . . )and at the end of the deal they give everyone a couple of gray M.I.T. sweatshirts. . . very cool.

I'm headed to Willow Springs so Ferris can push me off an M-2 the next day and nearly send me over a cliff : ) and decide to wear the sweatshirt to the airport.

I'm in the restroom, I'm washing my paws and the guy next to me says . .. "hey, that's really cool, having your name on your sweatshirt . . nice to meet you Tim".

It wasn't until I looked up that I started to laugh . . . . I'm betting he was not a student.

A student at Midvale school for the gifted. Tried to post a pic but it was too big. Dangit.
