i have no inside view of any of this.
what are thoughts on EB pairing up with Bombardier or someone or going on his own again?to manufacture?

mine own opinion is the best came towards the end and would get someone's attention who would offer a partnership or capital to start it over.and have the whole enchilada be entirely in eriks hands.
as in erik's engine choices are his alone...i can see keeping it inhouse...but he would be free to build what he wants.he just doesnt seem like the sort of man who can stay under the heel of adversity.
surely there is some kind of fusion reactor design hidden somewhere??? lmao
i am proud to have my XB
and will get an 1125 when i can in the future.

With Erik's reputation, and drive, the come back is a given.
We've lost "Buell Motorcycles"
We've not lost Erik Buell.

The fact that Erik was NOT absorbed into the fatty flesh of the Mother Beast gives us hope.

>>>>the sort of man who can stay under the heel of adversity.

Erik was under the "heel of adversity" for less than 36 hours.

He was offered more money than I will make in a lifetime to be "absorbed into the fatty flesh". Like Michael Corleone talking to Moe Green . . he was able to give them his answer now . . it was a Friday and it took him all of two words to refuse the offer.

One of the very talented Elves took the HD bait . . went there for about 3 days, saw what was going on and quit.

Erik's most amazing work is currently taking place.

That's just my personal opinion.

i think an important trait any of us should all have is to cope with adversity in a way that is quick when you need it to be, and you can get past it then u can nibble on it here and there.
not like having a huge wall in your face.
by all accounts he hit the ground running.woot!

Everything happens for a reason.
