Gone for good? Never made again? Can't buy them anywhere? Just curious... I'm looking into getting a 1125R next season if I can scratch enough coin together and it seems that pucks for this frame style are no where to be found. Any ideas if they will ever be made again? Erik | ||

Mrbudlightbeer has two used ones for sale! http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/messages/21/ 604416.html?1290619488 And maybe you can ask Froggy about new pucks(he has a couple in stock) | ||

I got some from American Sport Bike a couple of weeks ago. Give them a call or email if you can't find them on their site. They actually answer emails! | ||

There have been a couple of threads on this- "kit" that consisted of 2 pucks (L&R) and primer is no longer available. The individual left and right pucks ARE available. Apparently this is a common situation with quite a few items since the closure announcement. For example, the 2010 rear wheel kit, comfort kit, etc. You can't get the kit, but you can get all the parts. | ||

The individual pucks were obsolete for a while, I tried getting them back in the early summer. They recently became available again.  | ||

Cool this is good to hear, how much is a pair if you buy them apart? I think if it comes down to it I would stock up on them as well. | ||

I've put an order for some individual puck and the H-D system accepted the order. They seem to be back. | ||

I just wonder what happens in 10 years when all buells are out of warranties and parts dealers stop producing. Ether way, for now I'm happy that we can still buy these. | ||

The frame pucks come in with my orders today. Dieseldreamer we've ticked down to 9 years. It's a worry for all of us, but in 9 years time there will only be 10% of the Buells that there are now. The Frames and swingarms will be the biggest problem (and I think that they are out of production now). The other parts we will source like owners of Arials and Matchless and BSA have to do now. | ||

Why only 10% left? I mean that is like saying 15,000 bikes will no longer be on the road because of parting out and accidents. I just hope for our sake Erik gets funding to manufacture bikes again. If ever fall into a large portion of money, I'm investing in E.B.R. Honestly it would be worth it and the return investment would pan out, I'm sure of it. Only one catch, I want a touring bike with a diesel engine that runs on biodiesel. An all American bike, using an all American fuel. What dreams may come. Erik | ||

The 1190rs is a production bike but will come with a $20k price tag! | ||

They are still available. | ||

10 years from now I'll do what I do today, which is pick up the phone and call Al at American Sportbike and ask him what I should get. I'm restoring a 1971 Kawasaki F8 bison right now. Kawasaki stopped making parts for this bike a LONG time ago, and there were never that many on the road. So far, I am able to find all the parts I need. Not all are the price I want to pay for a $100 bike with a $500 restore budget, but they are there if I want them. |
