Baring hailstorms etc I'll be there, but there is no way you are getting it on the dyno. Dave |

Nooooooo!!!! I dont bloody believe it, the only weekend in December we have to be somewhere, and its the same fcuking weekend.. 35 minutes down the road and I cant be there. Hope you guys have a great day, I'll just have to force more beer down my throat to make up for missing it. |

Put yours inside if you like? i take it you still have what i call the tron buell? Oh and no dyno if you dont want to . Hi Tubbs, yes, still running the Tron. A few changes since you saw it: Gilles Vario-bars, new ally oil tank, rebuilt gearbox and shift mechanism, a lot more powder coating, forks resprung et, - all part of the usual fettling process. Dyno runs only end up as bad news. Either we blow the motor or we are disappoined with the results - no upside here. Still, be good to see you again, Dave |

Tubbs, Thanks for the offer but - even though my "Tron" is special to me - I would never suggest that it is any more special to the owner than any other Buell/EBR. Between us, we have thrown a while heap of cash and engineering skills at the thing, but I don't see that that should give me any more priority than someone on shoe-string budget that is fighting day to day to keep their bog standard Buell on the road. Those people deserve far more respect and special treatment than I do. I'm happy to leave the thing outside and get rained on with all the other visitors (as EBR should be too!). If you want to use it as a "look at what we can do" then that's a whole new issue and we can talk abnout that, but for now I don't see that I deserve any special treatment. Dave |

Do I read into this that Southampton HD are going to be an EBR distributor? |

I'm guessing the answer is a definite 'NO' ! |

I'm not allowed to approach H-D dealers If they come to me that's different but this is more a matter of Southampton H-D expressing their enthusiasm for Buell and I'm happy to show up because they're mates and it's another opportunity for enthusiasts to have a good look at EBR Steve (and deafening silence is because I'm working my nuts off getting ready for Motorcycle Live ) |

Small steps but yes EBR would be nice to have. The powers that be are 100% behind Buell days and support for Buell owners old and new. Just need to get maz to come down for the day, i have offered him to stay at my place eat curry drink and yak about bull@hit all night but??????????? |
