When is it? I'd like to make an appearance if I can make it. Maybe several people can get together for a ride to York. I am in northeast PA. Anyone close?

All engines are made in Milwaukee, 'cept V-rods

Capital Drive Plant makes Sportster and Buell Engines and Pilgrim Rd. Plant makes the Big Twins

Every year they ask for employee volunteers to work the open house. I volunteered to work the demos. Hope I get picked. getting paid to ride lead or chase what a great job.

I'll be there styling on my buell XB12R. Last year I went to the friday parade and hung out around downtown. Did not see one other XB buell there. I did see some tubers.

Isn't entering a BattleTrax event with Jose' and Mike TwoBuells in it, like going to a gun fight against Wyatt Earp?

: )

Yeah, that was '98? I had only owned the bike for about a month before I saw the Btrax at York and thought, "Hey That looks like fun......"

I did drop it in front of a bunch of people(Rookie mistake, front brake while leaned over), but I remember either you or Reg asking, you want to try again, and I said, "YES" the rest is history.

Hey, while you're already at York for the open house, why not stop by Liberty Buell for OUR little open house?! (shameless plug) Erik will be stopping by with his band (Erik and the Thunderbolts) to play a few songs, and I'm sure he'll be doing his usual meet and greet thing.

So, after you've demoed a few Buells at York, why not take a quick, what, 2 or 3 hour trip over to Rahway and let him know what you think!!

C'mon, ya know you want to. It's Saturday the 24th. We'll even give you some lunch. Whaddaya say?

I'm figuring it won't be too hard to figure out who is riding a Buell. I doubt we will be able to count them on two hands.
