I still have the hat that Buell gave out at the Bike Week S2 demos. | ||
| Jerry_haughton |
Cool! How much do you want for it?  | ||
| Court |
Were those the ones in Deland? | ||
| Rich |
"Were those the ones in Deland?" Yes, sir.  I bought the red one from Kim in Mukwanago, before I had my bike. | ||
| Jerry_haughton |
Either hat for sale? | ||
| Court |
Cool. Deland is where the ugly incident with your favorite shirt occurred. . . seems someone took "America's Fast Motorcycle" to infer that the "other" American motorcycle was slow. The "Rising Road" hat had a short life span . . . cool logo that got cut short, perhaps before it should have. | ||
| Rich |
You're right, Court. I was going to get a helmet painted with that logo, never did. Not for sale Jerry, thanks. I should though, I have too much stuff.  | ||

I never had that logo on a helmet but Aerostich did 2 suits, a 1- piece and a 2- piece, for me with it. It was kind of cool ...... But now folks look at it and are confused. One of the things I took exception to with HD Marketing (and make no mistake, there are some geniuses in that group) was the frequent logo changes. It diminishes the very purpose of a logo. When I started my company I contracted then design to a top PR firm, gave them 10 bullet points about what I wanted it to convey and never looked back. I'm starting to give some thought ....... To taking ALL this old stuff that guys like you, me, Walt, Phil and Don ( remember when all the Buell owners in America could ride on 1 bus? :-)) and collecting it in a single location ( perhaps one of the buildings at the new factory) .... Cataloging and putting it on display..... Perhaps an entire wall. Don't throw it away. | ||
