Continue with Buell

Just posted the picture of the first gas stop my bike ever made.

If anyone knows of a better place for this post or other Buell forums please get this moving.

Joined. There are about 5 Buell groups on FB. Should try get everyone to join the "Continue" group. Just show some support and let our voices be heard.

I won't/don't facebook, but I guess it is a good idea for those that do.

Have some faith, take a deep breath, and don't panic.

Yesterday morning was a surprise...but don't think this is the end of the Buell brand. There will be no shortage of interest in Buell or Buell assets. HOG was a only a slice of time in the overall Buell business cycle.

Why would you want to force a company that has decided the business cases of the two lines are no longer compatible to continue the relationship. What does it get you - It could only happen to the detriment of both the Buell and HD brands.

Look forward not back. It will do you no good (unless you are Davis Select or Morgan Stanley) to petition for the continuation of the HOG/Buell relationship. Just hope the transition is smooth and there will be a new incarnation of Buells available soon.

OK why will adding yet one more facebook site with like 175 people be better than Badweb with thousands - or even the Buell Facebook with over 6000?

Don't just hyper-dilute cyberspace any further than it already is. Well-meaning efforts become meaningless in no time.

CAll HD's customer service line, get on their facebook page, tweet them, send them letters and alert their stockholders!

This is a VERY shortsighted goal, and HD's long-term health is being shorted by them cancelling BUELL, which is their doorway into the youth market.

MAKE YOUR VOICE HEARD!!

Joined. Shared. Posted my indifference to chrome, leather fringe and conchos. Also, that despite what H-D marketing may think about customer retention in their lines, the only brand I've bought new is Buell.

Unless HD changes it's mind there will be no more Buell. They are not willing to sell off Buell - name included. So, yes, you're correct, it's going to take some faith and a whole lot of luck to get the Buell ship sailing, again.

Don't dilute. Hit ALL viable venues for getting the word out. No need to choose just one.

We need Leno to get on this. And all the cable business shows and news programs! Heck even Michael Moore!

This is a publicity war that we absolutely can win, but it will take a lot of hard work and perseverance.
