My son-in-law has been riding a small scooter to and from work for a couple of years, now. Last month, he and my daughter took the MSF Beginning Riders Course. He just sent me a text with a picture of his new bike. It's a Blast! he said his mechanic thinks it's in great shape. I don't know what year it is, but I don't think it matters. For what it's worth, it looks to be all stock and it has black plastics. I replied that he's gonna love it! Just thought I'd share some good news. |

As a former Blast owner, I can guarantee he's gonna love that bike. I haven't had mine since Dec of 2009 and I still think back fondly about that bike. Tell you son in law he hit a home run buying a Blast. |

The kid down at Starbucks who chats with me and my wife when we ride the Uly down there was talking about getting a Blast. I thought those had been removed from the planet, but I guess not. |

That's a decent start, but it's too much effort to make a Blast! nice for my tastes.

If you watch the blast cube video with Erik in it, Pick and chose Erik's words, sentences, and partial sentences to describe why Harley would cut Buell. I can see Wandell cubing an XB or 1125 while making a video using a lot of the same wording. Was it someone's cruel attempt at foreshadowing. Who was responsible for the thought of putting together the cube video. Erik's a thinking man. It had to have a perverse sting in the aftermath of the plant closing. |
