Anyone know? Cycle World? Motorcyclist? MCN? Comparison? When?

In Daytona the guy from Roadracing World was trying to set up a test with Erik for a shootout. One with the two newest Imports and one between the 1190 and a Ducati. Then doing a shootout between the winner of both.

Schwing! Erik better have his game on to go against the 1198. I hope it's against the 1198R as if it's against the base 1198, it's really a no win for the Erik Buell Racing bike, unless you are of the mindset any publicity if good publicity. I think the roll of out of the 1125R proves that theory wrong.

I got to see the 1190 minus its fairings today while picking up my oil and filter from Erik Buell Racing! Wish I could afford it and can't wait to see the magazines thoughts when they get there hands on one.

I'd love to see a shoot out to see how the 1190 stacks up!
It really doesn't matter who wins to me.
When Erik Buell Racing makes a bike in the same price range as a GSXR-1000, I'm buyin' it!!!

Yesterday I got to ride with a fellow with an 1198 base model...first time I had ridden with a Duc owner that wasn't a poser.

Holy tire dust Batman, That thing ate my XB up and crapped out a Blast and a Sportster. I imagine how fast the Corse "R" would be. By the top of third gear, it seemed as if I came to a stop compared to that yellow Duc.

Jezebel held her own in the tight stuff, but was giving up maybe 70 hp...I'm not used to getting smoked like that...

I ride with a couple of new 1198s, very good looking and sound amazing. Although the cr does do a awesome job of keeping a very close pace up until the cr's lack of fairing come into play around 120 then it walks away from me. Maybe this time the mags wont be so quick to throw buell under the rug when the tests come out.

The only shoot out that counts is on the track. And we have a very capable candidate in Geoff May to raise some eyebrows.

I think by the time this bike has been campaigned at Miller, the jury will be in - in favor of the 1190, of course.

Sorry...camera's are frowned upon inside the shop. I even got to see an old for testing purpose Buell Powered dirt bike. Makes me like shopping their even more.

I suspect we are ...... In the scheme of things...... In the last days of customers coming into the plant.

At the last Homecoming it was ( and well may be this year) nothing to do with motorcycles...... Just simple insurance.

I guess the "good news" is that it may soon be about motorcycles. There are a few fun things lingering in there now . . . . Some of which re simple lpay projects to try different hints out. I've taken many detailed photos so if and when they are binned we'll be able to talk about em.

Certainly fun times and z lot of excitement at the moment . .

I agree! Very exciting times! I have already started a fund for whatever Erik and the crew come up with that I can afford.
