Wow! Just got the Shiny Beast back from the dealer (Winchester HD/Buell). I have to say that it was a real treat. Ever been to a Harley shop where the head of the service department was wearing a "Buell Racing" t-shirt? That ranks up there with being struck by lightning on a clear day in your front yard! Do you believe this? He races Buells for the dealership. Crazy right? Funny, but they also sell a lot of Buells...and Harleys. Funny too that the lead Buell mechanic is also very popular with the Harley customers. Who would have thunk that having highly trained personnel could affect the Harley side too! A truly different business model for HD. About time right? | ||

I'm as serious as a maladjusted eastern diamondback in your underwear. They also had clothing and accessories, not a lot....but more than most. It was kind of refreshing. Any dealer that races is always refreshing...Winchester, Frederick MD, and Shenandoah Buell are always a treat to visit. Winchester also has a really cool Buell leather and nylon jacket that I have not seen anywhere. Hmmmmm, can you have too many Buell jackets? | ||

Black - My Lightning was run over by a Ford 250. Too bad I was on it. But, I did get an 1125R out of it. | ||

F-250s are bad, one backed over my Fiero. Had to replace/repaint most of the front up to the windshield... Check out any of the sponsoring dealerships, they should all be "cream of the crop". I work in Parts at High Country H-D/B in Colorado. We are sponsors, we race and ride Buells. We have close to a dozen new and used Buells on the floor. Want a test ride? Come on by any day but Sunday, we are open every day of the week. There are GREAT Buell dealerships out there... Zack | ||

I got my 1125r from Old Glory HD/Buell in Laurel, MD. They seem to be very Buell friendly as well. Many of the HD guys have done track days on the 25r. All the people there that I spoke with about Buells had nothing but positive things to say about 'em. | ||

Ever been to a Harley shop where the head of the service department was wearing a "Buell Racing" t-shirt? Yep. Every time I go to Bumpus HD. Steve Shivers has on a Buell shirt. What's cool is when you go to a Harley shop and the OWNER is wearing a Buell shirt! | ||

Wow! I also understand that they have four dealerships? They must be doing a lot of things right. | ||

Mr. Bumpus has 3 sons. | ||

I'm going to put Bumpus HD on my "must visit" list. | ||

You won't find a nicer bunch of folks. Tom is absolutely a Buell NUT! | ||

+1 on that. Buell is front and center at Bumpus. Walk in the front door, and look to your left. Buells lined up from the door to the wall. |
