This is kinda, sorta almost like our wishes coming true. We all have bemoaned the fact that the (Most)H-D dealership/corporate cluture is what was keeping Buell from being what it should be with its sales. Life in America is changing, our economy is in a turmoil, the old rules of corporate America are gone, the rules of the new owners(China) now apply, Walmart mentality prevails. When Erik Buell began it was a cottage industry, He will rebound and flourish and we will benefit from something better. Our immediate needs are met, parts and accessories, a very limited supply of replacement bikes. Time will tell what becomes of this, stay positive, think outside the box, that is what made Erik Buell the success he is today. | ||

...Time will tell what becomes of this, stay positive, think outside the box, that is what made Erik Buell the success he is today ... He will rebound and flourish and we will benefit from something better. +1 Some coworkers today (also riders) were curious as to why I've been talking about the Buell news with such enthusiasm. It's because getting away from HD opens the door to a whole new world of possibilities! Buell has seen tough times before and I have no doubt in my mind that they will rise from the ashes, probably sooner than any of us expect. I mean if the company was started in a barn with practically nothing but a vision and a lot of passion, what's preventing it from starting over with a good solid base of street- AND race-proven technologies that WORK! The passion is still there, the desire is still there. The only thing I see holding Buell back at the moment are the remaining ties to HD. Someone out there with the right combination of heart and cash can make this work! | ||
