Court, Just wondering if there will be any EBR presence at the show this weekend? | ||

There will not be . . . . put it in the "close but no cigar" column. But . . there are several bright points. 1) There WILL be an ERIK BUELL RACING 1190RS/CF on display. In fact, it's already in position. 2) There will be BBQ and Lies at noon on Saturday at the standard location. 3) When you find out what the 36 EBR employee are doing, working 7 days a week and 14 hours a day, I think you'll be glad that noses were kept to the grindstone. In addition, the NYC show is larger by a factor of about 3X, than any of the others . . there are some GREAT chances to meet some fascinating people (another good friend who is CEO of Norton will be on hand) and see tons of neat stuff. The trucks were lined up loading in today . . . . it's going to be a great show. You'll also get to see some great examples of Mike's (Rkc00) photography. | ||

I know it's not likely but I will ask anyway, how about next weekend in Cleveland? Thanks. | ||

Interesting...thanks for the update. Number 3 is very interesting.......looks to be an exciting year. | ||

The Ohio presence will be identical to the NYC show. Mike (Rkc00) has some great photos posted on his Facebook site as well as the thread here on Badweb. Interesting side note . . . Mike's photos are featured on the fancy back lit display in the 1190RS/CF booth as well as on all the literature. Very cool ! Elves At Work. | ||

Yu guys are not gonna be disappointed by all that is happening at EBR; I don't know anything I'm just speaking from 30 years of watching Erik work, BUT is not likely to be what any of us expect. Nor is it likely to be what we want now; when we see it we will want it; at this point we just don't know that we want something like what EBR is working on, whatever that may be. | ||

What ever happened to MOTUS? | ||
| Rex |
Haven't heard much from Motus lately. they were running around the country last year, doing real world tests on their bikes...? The ness bike. Zack, the grandson designed a cafe racer version of the above bike..... | ||

The Klock version is nice also. Both sure look heavy though. Victory has so much more potential. Guess they are going with what works, afraid to step too far away from Sales to experiment. They need some advise and design ideas from Erik. Victory should pick up the Motus motor and put in a Sport Touring Frame, then try a three cylinder bike, or twin... Ala the Street Triple, or Bmw..... Their dealers may be too much like HD now, trying to keep Skulls, etc. in stock, along with leather vests, fingerless gloves, etc. |
