What would you say to Eric Buell

[1001yos]

Hypothetically, if you ever meet Eric, give three questions that you would you ask him.

Of course you would say, "I love what you've done to motorcycles!" but what else would you say or ask?

Or if you have met him, what was your experience like?

1) Is the underslung exhaust and fuel in the frame design was just an desperate attempt to lower the high center of gravity caused by such a top heavy motor?

2) What is his greatest feature or piece of engineering on one of his bikes?

3)What was the hardest piece or feature to design?

Who's Eric Buell ??? I know a Erik Buell though. The desperate attempt question would probably get Erik to answer the question in a manner that you wouldn't understand anyway. Or he'd answer it farely and you would have a clear understanding.

I'd ask how it feels to have so many people's heads up his butt...

I would ask him to put full fairings on the 1125's. I saw one this last weekend at the International Motorcycle show and it look like a different bike.

I'd ask him for his autograph, then blow it up, make a decal, and put it on my bike, and sell it to some poor sap as a Erik Buell Limited Adish for 2x what it's worth, HA HA ok i wouldn't really. I'd shake his hand and tell him thanks for an awesome machine. and maybe talk bike with him a while. I'm sure it would easily be a 1 ended conversation with his knowledge dwarfing mine by far..

I would ask him what his favorite baseball team was. The man is probably pestered to death with bike questions all the time.

ask .....when is a bigger longer frame buell going to be built with a vrod motor.. ,,id think a xb looking bike built for power cruising ..dont care if its 600 pounds....vrod motor has a good rep for dependability

 

[RHYNOXB9R]

Why didn't you put a 6 speed tranny in the bike?Other than that,it kicks ass,thanks.

So far the only question here that has not been asked a million time here and its a good one is....."I would ask him what his favorite baseball team was. The man is probably pestered to death with bike questions all the time. "
