Good Buell article

If you read the whole thing he says he will build street bikes again just under a different name.

I'd put money on BPR and Erik Buell already have something in the works for next spring. I think it would be a great fit.

So what is stopping people from buying these decently priced track day bikes and adding some mirrors and lights and having themselves a brand new Buell? Granted there is still inventory left at dealerships that is an easier option, but they are getting harder to find.

well, proflex, if its like Ca law, then you have to give up your first born child, a major organ and a lot of $$ to make that happen. Or just don't get caught.

Mighty tough to do without a VIN and a Manufacturer's Certificate of Origin. Race bikes won't have those.

But salvaged 1125's will

I really like the idea that he is already thinking about what motor is going in the next bike. I feel comfortable going to sleep at night (after beating the **** out of my xb) knowing that Erik will not quit, and is thinking about how to build my next bike.

I agree. It's the most logical marriage, especially since BPR tried to buy the Buell brand from HD AND Erik is sourcing his engines from BPR Rotax. I really hope this comes to fruition too because BPR is a well run company with a diverse product line. Adding a sportbike division with Erik at the helm would be icing on the cake.

Lets keep our fingers crossed.
