Anonymous was necessitated by Harley but with that gone will we see open posts from Erik?

I suspect Erik has been posting here all along with a different username.

Heck, some of the Elves have posted up as other-than-anonymous.

Doesn't mean that they aren't still bound by their proprietary agreements with the Mother Company.

My greatest fear is that Erik posted here under a fake name, and for whatever reason, I treated him like an ass and scared him off. That is part of the reason the few times I have met him, I never mentioned badweb! : )

Froggy; I really doubt you could scare Erik off this board. I don't think you've ever treated anybody like an ass.

Frogster:

You missed the memo . . **I** am an . . it's been discussed and agreed upon. So if you need to fire "ass arrows" . . I'm your guy.

Erik has plenty to do right now and . . I suspect . . as he starts a new job . . will be returning to his 7 day a week work week . . fear not, he's quite familiar with the drill.

Once EBR opens, will he have to be a sponsor to be talked about like this and post if he wanted.

(this is called sarcasm kids. I know every situation is different, especially if Erik is involved.)

I don't know what Erik's deal is, but most likely he has a confidentiality agreement in place for a specified term as well as a non-compete agreement.

I'm sure they have him wrapped up pretty tight, but even if they didn't, a man of integrity would never burn bridges or divulge any information that would violate the terms of a contract or personal ethics, even under an "anonymous" moniker.

Like most people, I hope we see Erik on here. I enjoy reading his posts on Facebook. I'm not only interested in him from a motorcycling standpoint, but also as a human interest story. His story is one of the American Dream. One of success, failure, and overcoming those failures. It's what makes America great. Hard work, intelligence, and innovation. He's an example of the way I want to live my life but I'm to chicken and comfortable in my work-a-day world to do it.

I'm sure he's very, very busy...but he's also very smart. He knows no matter how good your product is, you have to market it and pacify your customer base. We are his market and customer base. He knows that. I'm sure he'll make use of Facebook, BadWeb, and other avenues to generate interest in his products as any good business person would.

If Erik has a "Non-Compete" agreement, then how can he go racing? Isn't racing all about competition?

The winner of the race has no competition, one's only opponent is oneself.

A non-compete is typically for direct competition. If Erik tried to build a cruiser, I'm sure that would be a violation of the non-compete. Or if he tried to go to work for a competing company.

Actually, if he built a new, non 1125/XB sporbike,he'd be competing with Buell wouldn't he?

City, man, you gotta just go buy a Blast engine, dump it in a Yamaha or something, and be done with it. I'll even paint a c0ck on it for you, so you can call it the Rooster.

At the stroke of midnight on Dec 18, all Buell's will mysteriously disapear from the face of the earth? Including the ones sitting in dealers?

What you and Willie do during your alone time is your business.

Court, maybe I misinterpreted what happened back in October.

I thought BMC was being closed, 180 people losing their jobs, and the last Buell would be built on October 30th.

I'm so confused.
