Very Cool News

[BryD959]

Hey guys,

Thought i would share this bit of news with you. I work in television and film production and i am working a new series called 'SLICED' It will be premiering April 22nd on the History Channel.

The show is basically all about slicing things open with beefed up powertools to figure out how things work inside. Everything from an airplane to an armored car gets sliced in half. Its really a fun show.

Ok. Now the cool news. One of the episodes will be Buell Motorcycles with Erik Buell slicing open some of his buells. It hasnt been shot yet but its slated as one of the last episodes in the season. Ill be sure to post pictures and let you guys know more about it when it gets closing to shoot time. Its gonna be cool.

waaaiiiittt.... ur slicing up a perfectly good buell? Feck... if there are any parts that dont get destroyed have erik sign it and send it to me

 

[dustin_usmc1]

Yeah tell them to use this one and give me the one they are planning on cutting up.

 

[aaronbuell]

buells on tv too bad this didn't happen earlier.

 

[wiznut]

Dear god why are you destroying something that is in limited numbers already [sad]

 

[BryD959]

So the shoot is scheduled for the the end of april.

It is going to be sad to slice a buell... But the bikes are so unique that they are really worth slicing to see how it all works inside.

i love the history channel. i can watch modern marvels for hours on end. can't wait to see this show. but kinda sad you have to cut up some perfectly good bikes. maybe just use some wrecked ones.

The uniqueness of the buell makes it a perfect candidate for a televised autopsy.[smirk]
We all know we're gonna watch !

BryD do you mind if i post this info on another site?

 

[browland]

Bry snag the brake lever off one at the end and send it to me mine's bent

sounds like a weird show to me and something i would never watch.... i dont understand why you would slice mechanical things up to show how it works when you can just build it to show how it works... its not like a human body. I just dont get it. More crap on TV, more money in someones pocket.

Maybe if they did a show a few years back about building a buell, more people would understand how different and cool they are.

i wonder if this what EBR was talking about on their facebook page , they said a while back (after 1190rr came out) that EBR had something that we all would like coming out soon , so i wonder is this it or something else entirely!!!!!! sad to see a buell getting cut up , i hope it is one of the ones from the dumpster of uly that was sacrificed for testing purposes, and not regular buell. maybe someone should ask EB about it. someone please copy the show for us who have no cable or sat tv, and post it on here or youtube or something. man i miss the history and discovery channels.

Guys I have a huge request. Can somebody record it and upload it on youtube or vimeo or wherever. I don't have an access to cable or satellite to watch History Channel and I believe a lot of guys also especially people from another countries on here. Thanks.

IMO, though it's not much & a little late - but it adds up to some publicity for Erik & Buell, a win-win.

Edit: I'll watch if I remember.
