I am having trouble with what to call the classes for the bike show at the Sportbike day on Aug 21st. One is going to be a Buell sportbike only class. The other will be for all the "other" brand sportbikes. I do not want to call it the "other brand" class and of course Jap bike,rice burner,and all other derogatory terms are not going to work for me. Soooo, I turn once again to the vast think tank known as Badweb for some ideas. Whatcha think? Dave |

Are you going to separate the German from the Italian from the Japanese and so forth, or will it be one great big "non-Buell" class? If so then I'd say to make it real simple: Buell non Buell |

You could always break the classes by number and type of citations earned. Then use the accumulated dollars paid in fines in the event of a tie. |

Buells, Imports, and break up the imports in to Jap, Brit and Europe. Special construction, Race and Race replica. But doing a show is kinda like Battle Trax you are going to have to assign classes when you see what ya got.

OK, so you guys see my dilema. I thought about Buell class and sportbike class but that would infer(and I know some here think this way) that Buells are not sportbikes, which they are. Buell and Import might work? Pushrod and OHC might work but from what I've seen of sportbike riders, they won't know what a pushrod is. Dave |

Personally, I think if you want a classification for Buells only, you should be upfront about it, "Buell" & "Non Buell" If you go for Domestic & Import you're likely to end up with folk whingeing about US built Honda's etc etc If you go metric & non metric where do Buell's fit? If you're feeling in a "don't give a toss" mood on the day, go for "Buell" & "Other Crap" but take a baseball bat with you just in case, Dyna, A Boss Hoss? Only if there's a straight road into the site I like Midknyte's wash idea, could be a real crowd pleaser, Whatever happens don't forget to post some pics for those of us that can't make it (especially the wash) ![](http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/clipart/biggrin.gif) |
