We may look back in a few years and realize this is the best thing that could ever have happened to Buell. That had they remained under HD that they would have been carrying a dead elephant on their back. It still feels like we are getting words from our friends that "you are better off without her" when it still hurts like hell. |

Yeah...like a million years ago!! It is a sad day still. But let's see what will come of this all. We may be surprised. One way or another. |

Court, Just how many Cudas were built? I've heard rumors of a few. And a whole bunch of engines. |

I've been at the same plant for 16 years. If I went to work and seen "that sigh",the bottom would drop out ........knowing all the dedication and years of work I put into that plant to make something great was snuffed in one fell swoop.......gone and not for sale in any manner..and not anyone's fault that worked there. It wouldn't be so bad if it weren't simply deemed and exacted as extinct and permanent,knowing it was not it's time. I feel the Buell employees pain. |

Just how many Cudas were built? Thousands.... If you mean Barracuda II, then I can't say The 1125R is the Barracuda, the 1125CR is the Piranha, and the bike in the "spy" photos was the Barracuda II |

Coulda done without seeing that. They had Elf playing today at work to try to make the cubicles more 'fun' I guess, and as the scene where the 'Elf Rules' are played, I had to smile a bit as my mind wandered to the Buell Values posted prominently for the Elves...
Thanks to all who had a part in building this ship I've so much enjoyed sailing in--I'll be on board 'til either I pass or I can no longer bail the water and go down with her. Okay, it's a little obnoxious, but you get my point. Thanks for everything Elves and Erik. |

If you have a clear sky tonight, go outside between 8 and 10 p.m. EST (7 p.m. and 9 p.m. CST), face towards the moon and look nearly straight up. The constellation Pegasus will be flying proud above the moon, below which will be Jupiter. Look for a pattern of four bright stars that form a large square. ...
The stars depicted in yellow and blue will be most visible; the red ones, not so much, unless you are well away from city lights. The big square pattern is quite large and covers a large portion of the night sky, it's one of the largest constellations that I know. I don't know of any hog/swine related constellations.
