Did you get that from High Country HD in Frederick, CO? Unless some privateer bult his own, I think the Folks at High Country HD built that one. | ||

Yep, thats a HCHD bike. I can dig through my old shots, I was an official photog of the race that year. | ||

In case you weren't aware, there were two Buells entered that year and they came in 2nd (Brian Anderson) and 3rd (Joe Kopp). Sorry, but the stats I have don't show the plate numbers, so I don't know who rode which bike. | ||

And here were their times.. Brian Anderson: 12:24.713 Joe Kopp: 12:41.403 | ||

I saw that bike listed and thought it would be cool to own it, but I've already got enough thrashed Buells. Hope you get it road worthy and enjoy it. | ||

Sorry, I can't help either. Pressing the dealer by taking it down for a visit and showing it to the shop there should help. "Ya, Ol' Clem built that. He's off down in a holler now, lemme see if'n I can give him a shout" Are you just curious about an old race bike? Or are you looking for providence and hoping for a payoff? | ||

good luck getting any info out of HD in Colorado. I bought it from the guy in Colorado and before I decided to sell it because I just never rode the damn thing and it just sat around....I tried getting any info or assistance just for shits and giggles. They don't give a single ••••• by the way one of the little springs on a shifter pawl popped off at one time, I had to wait 2 months to get the special clutch nut tool from Italy for the slipper clutch. if I come across it in my cleaning of the garage ill hit you up and send it to you |
