Hopefully this isn't a double post, but check out episode 27. These are the guys going around the world on their 1937 Nimbuses and some great video of when they stopped at the EBR garage.

That's awesome that Erik would do that. Man, more and more respect for the man each day. He earned a ton of respect from me a few years ago during Daytona Bike Week when the XBRR raced during the 200. After the race he came over to the house of a fellow Bueller who was hit by a car. Just seeing him in this video reinforces what I already can tell about the guy.

Looks as though they went over to Erik Buell's house, too.

That was a hoot man. Those guys are mad. I'm jealous. Love those Nimbus sidecar rigs.

Interesting contrast . . . . .

MOST SHOPS: "Gosh . . .we'd love to help you . . . but we're closing in 10 minutes. Can you come back tomorrow?"

ERIK BUELL: "Gosh . . . we'd love to help you but we're closing in 10 minutes. Can you follow me to my house? I'll stay up all night and rebuild your entire engine".

Really pretty damn cool . . . . .

By the way . . . . you should hear Erik tell the "Tale of the Nimbus". No kidding . . . you have to remove the crankshaft from the motor to change the clutch.

I thought the reason those guys chose the Nimbus was because it was easy to work on.
