I believe we are all anxious to see what EBR has in store for us. I was asked to convey a small word regarding responses from Erik.








This was his Inbox earlier tonight. He says he has even more unanswered emails since he sent me this. Normally, he works to answer ALL the emails he gets personally. He is still working to do this.

Understand, though, that it is JUST him at EBR and that he can answer emails or build and sell race bikes but not both.

Be patient. He will answer your emails when time permits.

Well that set me off on a You Tube adventure of Roy Orbison songs. I watched all of black & white night after working for the man.

Thats not good, someone better start helping. That kind of stress or workload can land you in the hospital soon.

I bet a large # on those emails are "well wishers". I might be good to have a blog type page on his site for people to just post that kind of stuff. I know he has a facebook page that would accomplish this, but I don't think everyone uses facebook. Emails should be reserved for earning Erik $$$$.

Erik isn't the "dish it off to someone else" kinda guy particularly if his name is on the shingle outside.

He just doesn't want anyone to think he is uncaring.

We've heard from him in several places how much the notes of encouragement mean to him. He is just having to temporarily compartmentalize his time in order to get EBR up and running (he only has a 1 year license agreement with the Murdership).

I would say, for a little while anyway, it would be best to post well wishes on the Buell or Erik's FB page (or here) and leave the emails to specific purchase questions.

This will help him out significantly.

1 year? What happens then? The only thing I can think of is that by the end of the year he must have a new design that he completely owns ready to go into service.

I sent him one email via facebook and he was nice enough to respond. I haven't sent him anymore for this very reason. As long as he knows he has tons of suypport that's what's important I think. I hope he knows there's alot of people willing to help if he needs it.

If I had the choice between responding to email or working on racebikes.... well that's an easy decision to make!
