So today I did a round trip of 313 miles in under 6 hours in this 101 degree weather to see this beauty. It was a hot trip on the 06 uly but worth every sweat drop. Enjoy.....

Yeah no joke. I walked up to the bike and saw that and rolled my eyes. On there website its in the new bikes under Buell Erik Buell Racing 1190RS. Buell has nothing to do with this beast. |

"Buell has nothing to do with this beast." That is an accurate statement, and neither does Hardley. I am surprised to see one in a Hardley Stealership! But I guess he has to sell them somewhere, I see a Buell sign in the background so maybe this is one of the decent Stealerships that actually supported Buell... thanks for the pics, while it is not the kind of bike I desire, it is certainly a work of art. |

Court, sorry but I don't know anyone there. The salesman I talked to was named mike. Seemed like a nice guy and was wearing a Buell racing pit crew shirt. The neat thing was that the e.b.r. set up was in the front of the dealer and it was the 1st thing I saw when I walked into the dealer. I had never been to this dealer before. Yes the key chain has to go. We don't need non knowers getting the wrong idea! |

The display was cool. I really liked the photo of the race bike and 1190 |

Good on ya Court! To my mind (and methinks many others on BW, especially Erik), the bar and shield on an E_B_R machine is simply blasphemy! BTW, if E_B_R keychains are available, how does one go about getting one/some? Thanks again good fella...

I'd love to hear the rest of the story on that odd casting shape inside the hubless rear... I saw the mid ohio bike looking like that as well. I bet there is a cool story to go with it... that wheel is breaking new ground in engineering and manufacturing. |

Looks sweet. No extra B.S. just like the bike itself. At first, I thought "Why not an oval?" Then I realized that it would be a bit too close to the old school H-D/Buell logo.

I put a bunch of spares I had on e-Bay and only 4 sold so I took them to Mid-Ohio and gave them away. I still have an unopened box and I think the thing to do. . .in view of the instant problem . . is to make sure that a couple go with each bike. That scares me to see the HD key chain and that Erik Buell Racing key touching each other.
