You know, R1 has been right on the things coming out. Hmmmm. Gotta give him credit for that. So, let's say we do get a Rod buell. Who wants one? (I know I do....) |

You missed out on a great feed of Salt Cod, Hard Bread and Scrunchions (Fat Port bits) that my lovely mother-in-law cooked for myself and "da boys" the last night before they left to catch the boat to get off the island. And it was outstanding, very good food, some tradition, even some history, very cool, and please pass along my thanks again Bill you missed out R |

Not all "mules" end up in the crusher, some get redirected on the way to the bins and crusher. I know a guy who knows a guy ..... Some end up and AMI, and MMI, so the student can learn how to work on the next gen. motors Look it up R |

Bill you missed out No kidding. Wish I had a dollar for every trip I didn't take but could have. Probably could afford to have somebody build my fantasy bike for me. Then again, the ones I did go on will be with me forever as some of the best times in my life. That is why I love reading the stories and seeing the pics of everyone's travels. If there is a moral to this story, it would be to take the time to enjoy while you can. Just remember there is a tomorrow so don't squander all your resources today. Me, I should have squandered a lot more. |

The streettracker pic got me thinkin'... Anon guaranteed there would be no Revo "Buells." I still think the Revo engine is too valuable to waste on the nichey Buell brand, so what if Buell is testing a Revo bike that will ultimately be branded an H-D? Is there a precedent? |

Precedent? I don't know. I just look at it as a Tuber which is something HD does well and something BMC isn't into at the moment. Would be a sporting bike to ride but by no means a competitive piece of machinery. At least not in any of today's venues. Just kind of a Retro Fun bike that I would dearly love to have. Guess that would definitely make it a HD and not a BMC product, eh? |

Yeah, but the fence line is on the way home... sort of. Hwy-59 near 83 is another good spot. Seems some early riders like to swap female passengers in the grocery store parking lot there on weeknight afterwork ride homes. Saw my first V-Rod there one evening. |

I'd have to go with Anon on this one. IMHO, when I first read Dyna's post during my lunch I thought he was trying to make himself look better by bragging 'I know something you don't know'. Just because Buell won't make a Revo powered Buell doesn't mean some Hooligan out there won't make one in their garage. Hell, if I could justify cutting up my V-Rod and my S2 and end up with one sweet bike from two sweet bikes, there would be one already. Fortunately, I know 2 is better than 1. Kind of funny, an Engineer that can still handle basic math problems. (Usually once an Engineer learns to integrate, you lose your skills to add and subtract...) Now the mention of a crashed V-Rod to donate it's powertrain to one of the frames from the many chopperized Buell's sounds like...the ride of a lifetime! 1313 |

Hey Dyna keep listening and watching for me. You will be right as I ordered the Road Glide because Buell didn't come out with a sport tourer that we ALL want. It's the story of my life, I upgrade a bike to what I think would be a model that should be made and bingo the mfr comes out with the bike I wanted before..... So I bet the Revo/sport tourer is in the pipeline..... |

A few years ago, Erik was running around on a bike with a turbo. The factory hasn't released a turbocharged model yet. The factory is going to play around with a bunch of concept bikes, and if you were in the right place at the right time, you'd see them and think they were a new upcoming model. But a lot of really neat concepts never see production; like H-D's Nova. I've worked for some small companies over the years, and seldom do the employees know exactly what's being planned upper management. They may see completed bikes that they think are headed for production, but those bikes get sidelined for other reasons. It sounds like the overheard employee was drunk, (or getting there) and trying to encourage a friend to come to work where he was working. In my experience, what was said in such conversations has little to do with reality. I'd take everything that was said with a lot more than just a grain of salt. I just hope that the guy doesn't lose his job. A very good friend of mine lost his job at H-D because he made a few comments on Buell enthusiast websites, and he didn't even mention any products, or divulge any secrets. |

Dyna, do us all a favor and do not quote things like people's names, incomes & personal views on their co-workers - especially on a Buell - centric board. Maybe the guy was loaded, full of sh**, completely right in his accusations / recommendations - who knows... Regardless, this is not the place to hang out the dirty laundry - it is one thing if the guy came here and started spouting all this first hand, but entirely another to have you transcribe 2nd hand conversations to which you were not invited, nor expected to be privy of. |

Crusty, I know all about the concept bike bit & trying out new things. But why is it that Buell & the anons will deny even considering such a bike when the cold hard reality is that they are indeed at least testing them as mule bikes. What the hell would be so wrong with the factory actually telling the enthusiasts "yes we are looking into & possibly producing a watercooled bike or a touring or a combination of both"? Toss the fans a bone every now & then & we wouldnt have to play Dick Tracy everytime we get north of West Allis. |

Toss the fans a bone every now & then Ahhhh...The dreaded KTM marketing theory. LOL Anon has every right to question the soundness of that practice. Most corporations shine that as they fear it will queer sales of existing models. KTM can afford to do it as they are building excitement (and getting feedback) concerning a market segment they have never entered before and all it can do is add to their existing business. Same goes for Yamaha and the MT-01. As for HDI, I don't blame them for making HD and BMC hold their cards close to their chest. Lots of loyalty and emotion in both customer bases and lots of negativity elsewhere as well as the ability of their competition to copy elements of their designs and beat them to market. All of which indicate that announcements of anything but the final "ready for production" product could be suicidal. Just an opinion, but worthy of consideration. |
