Author Message   Mikethediabetic Posted on Friday, December 09, 2016 - 08:45 am:        So last night i was lucky enough to meet the one and the only Erik Buell. He was doing a meet and greet / Q&A at my local Indian/EBR dealer. It was very cool, he went over in detail every aspect on the new EBR's. He was very approachable and a super nice guy. I was able to get a picture with him and have him sign my flyscreen off my X1. Couple that with the free beer and food, and it was a solid night.   Upthemaiden Posted on Friday, December 09, 2016 - 11:40 am:        Looks great! If I'm ever headed somewhere that there's a chance of seeing him, I'd definitely toss my flyscreen in my backpack just in case. I'm also jealous that you have a combo EBR/Indian dealership. That's everything I could ever seen out of a motorcycle dealership haha.   Brother_in_buells Posted on Friday, December 09, 2016 - 12:40 pm:        That's way to cool to hang on the wall! Put it back on your bike and let the world see it.   Harleyelf Posted on Friday, December 09, 2016 - 02:33 pm:        If he's still using the same pens, sunlight will fade it. He signed my bike twice and you can't see either place anymore.   S1owner Posted on Friday, December 09, 2016 - 03:23 pm:        Markers are not UV stable. He would need to use a UV stable paint pen. If it will be a wall hanging maybe have someone clear coat it with something that wont erase it and nake sure its UV stable. Would make a cool plac with the picture.   Harleyelf Posted on Saturday, December 10, 2016 - 11:39 am:        Yeah, I tried clear coating the second time and it still faded, leaving a round patch of clear coat visible. Still grateful for the memory of having met him - a truly gracious man.   Mikethediabetic Posted on Monday, December 12, 2016 - 10:03 am:        Thanks guys, He was super nice and informative. I really really want a white 1190rx but i cant afford one of those right now. Either way, i ditched this flyscreen a long time ago so it will only be for decoration now. Great experience meeting him. As for the pens. I had him use a Milwaukee Inkzall. not sure if it will help with durability, but im sure it didnt hurt.

Talked with Erik for a while. I couldn't go to NY city for the show. My back decided to give out. I'm in Bloomingdale.   Mikethediabetic Posted on Tuesday, December 13, 2016 - 07:56 am:        Electra, Im in Ringwood. Didnt make it to the javits center either   Electraglider51 Posted on Tuesday, December 13, 2016 - 08:57 am:        Pm sent
