Now that the announcement is made, explain stuff to us hard-of-thinking folks upon which subtle clues just don't work (ask my wife lol): 1) What did you know and when did you know it? 2) What was the thing in plain sight on the internet? 3) What was the "red" bike thing all aboot? I'm sure other people will add their list of "Court's Clues".... | ||

I'm glad somebody started a new thread on this. I already posted the question in the "Rumor Express" thread and in the "They'll Never Pin It on Me" thread. I'm entitled to go "DOH!" dammit!  | ||

Court and I make a point of NOT knowing stuff. We both discourage folks from filling us in and don't ask too many questions. If we don't know we can't get someone in trouble by saying something we shouldn't. BUT we both know a lot of folks and know how Buell operates and how Buell thinks. With that knowledge and what was pretty much public knowledge about a hyper sports bike and a dirt bike we are able to figure some stuff out. I don't know about Court but I knew exactly what they were doing only a day or two ahead of everyone else. I had a very good idea what was going on a couple of months ago, but this was because I read the clues. It is fun to tease you guys BUT I treat anything I do know about where Buell is heading with the strictest confidence and I always have. That said i know a LOT less than you all might think but it is sure fun to let you think I am plugged into the back room at Buell;) | ||

Durdy Bikes were promised to be 2 years out, when Buell announced it. So that means next year. | ||

I bet you all didn't know that Okra was the forbidden fruit. Yeah it's technically a vegetable, but you don't know the power of Okra! | ||
| Barker |
Okra technically a FRUIT! Okra, also known as lady's finger, is a flowering plant valued for its edible green fruits. Its scientific name is Abelmoschus esculentus. The fruits are harvested when immature and eaten as a vegetable. | ||

1) What did you know and when did you know it? - I didn't know anything and that's by design 2) What was the thing in plain sight on the internet? The notebook marked "Mikey2 - complete engine assembly drawings" 3) What was the "red" bike thing all aboot? there was what appeared (based on a hyperlarged enhancement a badwebber sent me) to be a producy owners manual Turns out, Erik tells me we should have been reading the yellow legal pad. I blew it up and the best I can get is " a dozen eggs, a loaf of bread and 6 apples"} Drats! . . but you have to admit, it's as much fun as the approach of xmas was when you were 7! How many adults get to have this much fun? | ||

So, was Erik hiding a clue in plain sight a few years ago????? http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/messages/290 431/290933.html?1184070270 | ||

 It all started in Dallas a couple of years back. Who'd've thought Daves was such a picky eater?  Ever since that night, okra has been the official vegetable of the Bad Web! rt | ||

That looks like fried okra, one of THE most addictive substances known to man. Do NOT confuse this addictive delicacy with the boiled type. Boiled okra is slimy and nasty in equal measure. Nasty to the point of needing an equal amount of stewed tomatoes added to become even slightly palatable. You can't rehab the slimy. Don't even think about it. I'm not supposed to tell you this but the Navy uses boiled okra as a jet engine assembly lube. You did NOT hear that from me. Please sir, set the plate down and step away. Just say NO! to fried okra.

Aw...I miss Daves.  Maybe he can have a contest at his archery shop. He could give away an 1125R as the grand prize in an archery competition. I know I'd buy a bow and start practicing!  | ||

My question is........is this the bike (or version of) that we saw leave the factory during the 20th? | ||
| Swordsman |
Eww... I've seen the slimy stuff. It actually strings when you try to separate the pieces!  ~SM | ||

"RED BIKE" , see page 16 of the newest Motorcyclist, it just came to my house today. Only thing right was the Rotax motor but they assume it is going in all the bikes. Nothing really about a Superbike 1125R model. | ||

Court and Davegess are STILL keeping the Buell Okra a secret! Notice, Dave Stueve has been seen in public with Okra??? Notice, Buell is NOT publishing ANY Okra information, data, recipes? Notice also that Court and Dave Gess are not posting even subtle hints about the Okra? Coincidence? I leave it to you to figure it out | ||

Mike J. The 2000 Buell Demo shirt is too cool! I have one. As Sgt. Shultz said,"I know nothing" But I did buy this Rotax powered Four Wheeler a few months ago  Can-am Renegade 800 EFI has a whopping 800cc V-TWIN Rotax engine and has massive amounts of torque. Check out the four Firebolt headlights   (Message edited by Two_Buells on July 10, 2007) | ||

 Very nice 4wheeler there. Several years ago I was working with some folks who were starting up a new company. While they were looking into engines I learned and overheard a few things. Veeeeeerrrrrryyyyy iiiiinteresting. | ||

1125 R the new Buell OKRA ? Kind of like the Segeway being named "Ginger" ;) No real connection to the product, I wonder what it translates to in Japanese |
