Is there any truth to this rumor at all?
Does anyone know anything?

Here is what he posted.

Buell Rumors.....
posted by fifthcircle
-------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------

So I talked to a friend who works with a guy that knows a Buell fella.....
Rumor is that there is somthing BIG in the works and the Buell fella told the guy to wait awhile before he buys one. This was before the white super TT came out. He talked to him again and said that it was cool and thanks for the heads up. Buell fella said, "NO, wait a little longer".

Absolutely none. I am officially not gay.

I wondered when the no-riding boredom would work its way over here.

mmm... I love rumors. I always get so antsy around time for the two dealer meetings.

Looking forward to hearing "The Future of Buell" seminar.

ADD kicked in right after Daves post on the first page. There's four pages of that nonsense. ADV is a nice board totally screwed up by the fact that its loaded with SNOB's that hate anything that isnt "their" brand of motorcycle. I look around over there almost daily and have made some post's here and there . Most the time I get disgusted with either the unfounded opinions of anything HD/Buell or the lack of respect to others posts for questions or trying to sell a item.

Chrisb,

I don't think the snobbery is as much about brand as it is about who was here first. If you weren't one of the first 100 charter members of ADV, you really don't count for much over there among the "giants". It's a fund board, but the quality and intensity of Buell discussion there isn't nearly what it is here.

You would be hard pressed to find anyone who wasn't welcomed here by just about everyone. Even Skyguy would be invited were there a barbeque! ;)

As far as Buells are concerned, ADV is nothing more than a faint echo of Bad Web.

Are you staying for it? I think you'll be thrilled.

I'd say more but don't want, a year from now, to be accused of "hype".

They do have excellent ride reports with mega pics though! I have yet to find a thread in the ride reports with a Uly. iDave had an epic tale but that was in another forum and I think he's traded away from Buell already. I could be wrong: it wouldn't be the first time.

FTB, whatever happened to the Ulysses' in Ulysses KY? DO IT! NUTS

I don't visit ADV that much but I agree, this board seems MUCH more "relaxed".

Doesn't seem like anyone here has something to prove, there's great camaraderie, and besides most of us ride or take an interest in BUELLS!

I think the Uly is as much a black sheep on ADV as it is on the HD dealer's floor.

Advrider also has an awesome topic devoted to gps subjects:

http://www.advrider.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f= 37

Some of those guys are quite the gps geeks. I've learned a lot in a small amount of time, thanks in part to advrider.

BTW, I think most of the banter about a new Buell over there is more about winter boredom. The lack of decent riding weather is wearing on me also.

Nuts,

I think it died for lack of a nucleus. Winter also didn't help it.

I'd say let's try to get is up an running this spring.

For Christmas I received a gift card to use at the Harley dealership in Utica, NY. So after Christmas I went down and ordered a couple of the Uly T shirts listed on the Buell website. Well, today the dealer called and said that the Buell folks called and said they only had size small left and would not be getting any more. I told the dealer to change my order to the Buell T shirt, then. So the dealer called Buell again and was told they do not have them either and are not getting any more and I would just have to get a refund. What's up? This Fall they do away with BRAG, now we can't even get T-shirts from Buell. What are they doing?

I heard the new bikes for 2008 were going to be made completely out of recycled T-shirts. ;)

And all this time I would've thought the Deep Fried Mars Bar originated in Kracker Station, Mississippi.

Scotland??!?!

And popular in Oz and Kiwi? Ah, well, those two are Southern at least...

The T shirts do not come from Buell.
They come from one of 3 companies that are lic. to make Buell branded shirts.

I doubt that you have ever been accused of spewing "hype".

I think the 'no wait a little longer something big is going to happen' is just a bit vague, no? Not really going out on a limb is he? If I said the same thing no one would give it a second thought but since this guy is someone who knows someone who knows someone we should listen....

I was told if I say anything about this new model, Erik would hide all the Dragons from me!

BTW, I will be test riding this new model in a unnamed back alley in the near future!
