During a speech at dinner tonight the new pres. of Buell (the name escapes me) announced that there will be two new XB models coming out in July. The details were vauge but the bikes apparently are aimed at riders who want something larger than the present XB frames for more comfort during longer trips and/or to fit larger riders more easily. No word on if either one of them is a "sport tourer" but you could certainly assume that one of them may fit into that role or at least be convertable with a kit or aftermarket parts. More to follow... JT |

John Flickinger Really nice guy, pro Buell, sat at the same table during dinner. He even gave me a "plug" for people looking for parts! I like him! |

And not only is Mr. Flickinger the pres of Buell. HE CAN RIDE! He did well on his CityX on the battletrax course. I've got a bunch of pics of him doing it. I'll post them later tonight. And Dave is right, a SUPER nice guy. As was everyone else from the factory. Mr Buell himself came out and helped fix one of Brew City Brag member's 2002 S3T How cool is THAT!??!! |

You like everybody Dave. Really sorry that I'm missing the festivities this year but hopefully there will be another chance in 2006. |

I will sell my '68 Chevelle if I can place an order for an XB12ST... |

I haven't figured out what I'm selling yet... Anyone want a beautiful, healthy one year old girl? Just kidding.. But a couple or three guitars might end up on the block. Maybe I can sell Court or Erik B. one of my Stratocasters. I don't play them much since I got my new Suhr. JT |
