Indian Buell

[brumbear]

Except xerox doesn't want into the American market. I hope we are going to see Buell forever but I asked myself why would Hero want Buell?
Technology- nah they got engineers
racing - maybe but to what end?
a patten we don't know about - a real possibility
The ability or license to sell bikes in the US with fuel costs expected to rise- very good possibility
Why would Buell want Hero- It virtually guarantees a Buell Motor cycle for the future.
access to small bike production lines- yep
a virtual goldmine of potential customers-yep
a way to circumvent US red tape-yep (look at the shipping industry).
I really just want to see Buell bikes continue to be made American and not have to go through another HD style situation.
I am sure EB doesn't want this either and has safeties in place so I think after cooling off this will be a good thing but I don't trust the Indian business practices that's what made me mad. Not ignorance or anything like that just being thorough in my own mind.

i hate seeing anything motorized destroyed like that in the first video, but he who created the blast can taketh the blast.....[cool]

either way I'm keeping my blast and at least one of my firebolts. I'll probably wind up buying an 1125 at some point, the opportunity just hasn't made itself yet.

It is just that. I think I read Danny gets a season or two of sponsorship and another rider gets 1.

Yeah, I was just responding to the people on the first page that said it was a Hero-made bike.
