More info will be posted as details become available in the near future! | ||

sunglasses? And for the helmets, do they just put a design on an existing helmet or what? | ||

I know another company that sells more apparel than they do bikes... | ||

"And for the helmets, do they just put a design on an existing helmet or what?" I have a Buell helmet that is a Shoei under the decals, so that's probably the case. | ||

And here I was hoping for the red "plain" and yellow "with peanuts" characters to start selling bikes on TV... | ||

Sorry for the late post, I had meant to start a thread yesterday but had other commitments. M&M Designs has signed a multi-year agreement with Erik Buell Racing to develop, market, and distribute EBR and Erik Buell Racing clothing, clothing accessories, motorcycle gear, and various other categories throughout the Americas and Europe. Products will initially be offered at Super Bike race venues and through EBR dealerships as well as e-commerce sites. More than likely marketing and distribution will be carried out under other corporate entities. M&M Designs is a 38 year old Texas based corporation with factories, partners, and licensees in the US, Canada, Central America, South America, Europe, and Asia. We work with major brands, retailers, and their factories concerning wearables. If you wear tees, shirts, jeans, underwear, athletic wear, sports replica jerseys, or licensed property items, there's a good possibility we had a hand in it. We are also motorcycle enthusiasts, specifically Erik Buell made motorcycle enthusiasts. Additionally we have recently been accepted as a BadWeb sponsor. Thanks Blake. We hope to offer EBR products of quality and value while being somewhat unique and innovative. We will test the waters at Road Atlanta with a dozen or so items. You can find us in the vendor area. I hope you'll stop by and grab a free water, get out of the sun, and take a look at a couple of very special Erik Buell Racing 1190RS bikes on display. We very much want to make products that you all want and need. I would appreciate any questions, comments, or suggestions you may have. It is going to take a little time to get up to speed on this exciting project but hang with us please, there's some cool stuff in the works (although candy and kilts have not made the list yet  ). Thanks for your support. Rob | ||

damn!! I was hoping for a kevlar riding kilt with a cold storage pocket so my chocolates wont melt.... I can still dream! Looking forward to seeing you at Mid Ohio | ||
| Spank |
I have a suggestion. I don't know how much of a market there is, but how about children's/youth clothes? It would be nice to get the whole family involved. | ||
| Crusty |
I would like to see a tasteful Pocket T shirt. Logo over the pocket and maybe EBR on the back. | ||

Thanks guys. Spank we will have youth oriented products. You are exactly right, time to include the family. Our women's line will be tasteful and extensive. Crusty we will have nice pocket tees as well as camp shirts, garage shirts, polo styles and button downs. Glitch I look forward to meeting you. Hope to see a lot of EBR folks in Atlanta. Please keep the suggestions coming. We are not going to go crazy with all types of products but we need to know what you'd like to see as EBR items. Especially gear. Everything we make will have that something extra, something apart from the herd. | ||

Did you make those Geoff May shirts that were for sale a while back? Nice image quality for a picture on a shirt. | ||
| Whistler |
No Reep, we have not done shirts for Geoff but we are working on some new things for him now. Hope to have something ready for the race coming up at Road Atlanta, Geoff's home track, April 20-22. | ||
| Spank |
Thanks for the info Whistler! | ||
| Reepicheep |
Very cool! I'm looking forward to some gear that Harley didn't "help" design! | ||
| Jerzydevil |
Please dont forget us big boys!!! | ||

Maybe these will bring the Buell riding boots back offered by Buell a few ago, still sporting mine had to have zippered replace would like get similar boot. | ||

Whistler, Will the truck be at Sears Point in May? There are a lot of EBR/Buell fans in the Bay Area. Thanks, M/C Mike | ||

Suggestion, "Pit Shirts" two button-flap or snap closure front pockets for pen, pencil, note book, air pressure gauge etc. with maybe a sleeve pocket too. Short sleeve for warm days and maybe a long sleeve version for those spring and fall races. Cotton of coarse. Synthetics can be pretty nasty when they catch fire. G | ||

Something I can wear to teach MSF classes in... | ||
| Bluzm2 |
I prefer heather gray, SO sick of black T's.. A polo wouldn't be bad either. | ||
| Rex |
Polo's are good. so are the shop shirts. Regular shirts are good too. Buell had a really cool, long sleeve shirt at one time, various pockets, cool material, etc. It was black with the logos in Blue. Yes, don't forget the big boys.. | ||
| Drkside79 |
Actually tall sizes would be great. | ||
| Whistler |
Jerzydevil and Rex - We'll carry 2XL as stock and some items we will inventory 3XL. Anything larger than that we will offer as custom in some categories. Might take a tad longer to fill the order but we'll do our best to find what you need. Motorcyclemike - As of this moment we are planning on Sears Point. Everything is a little fluid right now but we have plans in place to attend every SuperBike race this season. Gregtonn - Yes we will have shirts similar to your description. Cotton is the fabric of choice in almost all soft goods although we will offer some blends on certain items. Bcordb3 - Boots, we're currently working on three models. I think you'll find them to be 1st rate. BluzM2 - Yes we're with you on colors. We'll offer black and white but we will also offer different grays and many other colors and styles. Wolf - What would you like to see offered that you could wear to MSF classes? I got a PM about caps. We'll have plenty of very cool caps and hats. All of your comments are extremely helpful particularly since we are still constructing the lines. Doesn't have to be just soft goods. It's OK to think freely, we can climb out of the box. Thanks BadWebbers. | ||

Long sleeve dry wick. It would be nice to promote the brand to the new riders....especially my Riders Edge Students  | ||

This may be a tall order, but- any chance to see "American Made" tags/labels on stuff? It'd be SO cool to see American made products supporting an American made Superbike! (I get it if the numbers can't support this idea, but...) Also- I've been lusting after Icon's hemp fabric jacket- looks to be well made, with the right amount of armor, nice color- IMHO there are SO many great uses for hemp that we as a nation are overlooking- and no, don't wanna smoke none, just wear it... Lookin forward to seeing the new stuff when it comes! | ||
| Motorcyclemike |
Whistler, Thank you for the response and welcome to the family!!! Your going to enjoy yourself here. And if you come out to Sears Point, bring a street bike, I know some fun roads!! M/C Mike | ||

How about EBR Shades with Pegasus shaped arms? But they have to be available with no lenses for us glasses wearers to have prescription lenses fitted. |
