This is awesome... "All proceeds from this sale will go towards purchasing another wheel that we collectively hope doesn't succomb to the same fate." I wish I had a grand to throw down on this. Too cool. |

Get the man himself to sign it! C'mon that's a no brainer. $1,000 is pretty steep. I can see a few hundred buck for it, but a grand? |

I hope they get the $1000+ for the wheel. Seems there is a reserve price on the bidding, which is interesting as well. |

Was thinking the same thing. Would love to see the 25' flying Buell. Bidding has gone up to $255 pretty quick. They may very well get a grand. |

It's up to $400 now. I understand that there is a certain coolness to having a busted part off of an E B R bike but I don't think it's $400 worth of cool. But hey, if people want it that badly, more power to them! |

That guy has only been a member since 05/13/10 and has only one feedback!!!! AHAHAHA!!!! I put it up there. The description is intended to be a bit cheeky, which is half the fun of putting stuff like this on eBay in the first place, but we'll actually use the money for another wheel.. edit.. If the bidding gets over $700 I'll have Erik sign it as well. Over $1K and we'll throw in some scuffed bodywork for wall art.

Put a nice piece of glass over that wheel, some creative fasteners and you have a coffee table for your man cave! |

This is a great way to get a little extra race funding, heck we would buy Erik Buell Racing raced used oil if you bottled it and put it on fleabay

I'd like to get it, but I'd also like to see it go for a lot more than I can afford. It really puts the cost of racing in perspective to think that even if they get $1300 for it, that will only replace the one wheel. Maybe if it goes for enough it will make a potential sponsor take note of the kind of support the team has. It's money well spent no matter how you look at it. |

Well somebody just topped my bid. I'm probably not done yet, but I'm going to hang back and observe. I've got a number in mind I'm willing to go to . . . but I'm not about to tell you degenerates what it is.

Bishop--It's pretty obvious Augustus was joking in his first comment and he was just making sure everyone knew it in the second. Relax. |

Thank you Fresno. I thought it would be cool to see Erik start putting used stuff up on Ebay,didn't know it wasn't him, does the op work for E-B-R? |
