As a lot of you do, I get Emails from motorcycle.com. Well I got one tonight that has an article on the top 5 patriotic motorcycles.

Lo and behold, #3 - just behind Captain America from the movie Easy Rider - is the EBR 1190RS Carbon Edition with the American flag paint job.

That's pretty cool in itself, but...

Gee, that picture looks awfully familiar...

Oh wait, that's right. It's a picture that I took at the races at Road America in 2012 during last years Homecoming. I posted a resized version of the original pic right here on BadWeB, as the 9th picture down in this post.

It doesn't really bother me that someone used a picture I took, just think it's cool that something I shot was deemed worthy of spreading to the masses...

That is a really classy paintjob too.
Funny that it's the only American bike here.
Well the KLR has an American engine...

It just seems strange to see the Ducati and KTM with USA paintjobs.

Ya know EBR likes to do that though, I believe they used MJR's photo in the dream pavilion as well. Cheap advertising I guess that's not to cool in my book though. Anyway I am going Cpt America as my #1 and the Buell as my #2 thanks for the cool pic Brankin!!!!

Subtle patriotism on my 1125R, however not ranked very high:

"Danny Eslick earned the 1190RS its first AMA Pro Racing podium in Race 1 that weekend." ??????

I notice that they've given you a namecheck on the photo Brankin.
