Get a group of investors together, and buy the brand back!....trademarks, copyrights, everything. Open the factory back up and sell them at euro/jap bike dealers. Let's GO!!!!!!!!!

Another thread mentioned buy the stock. I would give some to try and keep this thing a live. Someone (Court?) needs to talk to EB and who ever needs to be talked to and find out if this is an option for us.

HD stock is publicly traded as HOG (NYSE)

If you're talking buying a controlling majority of stock by getting a few dozen to a few hundred Buell fans, you're think you're going to be able to come up with the 3 billion or so dollars required?

Better get busy.

I heard wall street was getting their bonuses this week. Maybe some of those stock brokers need an outlet for that extra capital....

We don't want to buy HD, just BMC. That would be so nice if it could actually happen.

You can't buy what is not for sale. Harley is not going to sell they do not want outsider getting a hold of their high tech equipment and ideas. Yeah right don't make me laugh!!! Erik was taking Buell down a road H-D did not like the death of the air cooled XB motors. Everything else on the bike was 100% Erik Buell!!!

Buying "JUST" Buell is not, never was an option... without a controlling interest in HD.

Getting say a couple hundred investors together among the Buell enthusiasts will raise what kinda money?

"Dear mister Davidson, we the undersigned wanna buy that there Buell moto company from all you alls for the tidy sum of $10,318.96 - please acsept ar deposit in the amount of $100, we promises to git you the rest as soon as we kin. Please git us that Buell motorcycle business now. Thank you very much"

Aint happenin.

Maybe we should invest in Harley, get enough rich guys on board to have a controlling interest, and then put Erik in charge of the whole thing just to piss off the old guys who are still pissed that Harley's have fuel injection now. Can you imagine a Road King being revamped to have fuel in the frame and with rear sets? I'd freakin' buy one if it had the get up and go that my Long does.
