Court-
To me the weight of a t-shirt says alot towards quality.

I am pretty hard on cloths and nothing holds up to the abuse like a Hanes Beefy-t. Its a good heavy T-shirt.

If you start with a quality T-shirt I find the screen printing lasts longer too.

30 bucks or so for a quality T
20 bucks for a nice hat
5 to 10 bucks for a patch

sticker, free with purchase of one of the above or 3 bucks out the door

1. I want decals to run on my race bike.
2. I would also like a shirt to wear in the pits, not necessarily a full button pit crew shirt, but a 3 button with collar would look nice.
3. A t-shirt, good quality that wont fade after 3 washes!
4. Tight fit t-shirt, similar to the latest Buell shirts that were available. I liked those.
(usually lighter weight, very soft and comfortable, great in hot weather)
5. Ball cap to hide my helmet hair. : D


How'd I do?

Court, I rank country of origin high on my priorities for apparel. A company called American Apparel actually makes high quality products, though possibly a bit pricey. Let's keep the jobs in the U.S. please.

Flex fit hats are my favorite! My heads too big for the adjustable kind. Lol

Hats are hard to please everyone. I wear a hat usually, and it's not a baseball cap. I actually own about 20 hats, and none of them are baseball. Now if you could get the 'real' baseball hats that are sized to one hat size, I might be interested.

Stickers and patches, yes please!

T-shirts. Besides wanting mine in rainbow tie-die, I recommend only one design on a few colors of shirts, if not only one. K.I.S.S.

Everything should be high quality and locally produced.

Quality American made. I was definitly unimpressed with the quality/price of some of the older Buell t-shirts. Harley more than likely had a great influence on that.

Court - Haynes Beefy-T is a good bet for the shirt. Black or dark, so all the oil stains don't show too soon : ) Durable, not cheap-o fabric. Something a meatball like me can toss in the wash at the wrong temp, and dry on high...and still have a shirt, not an oven mitt. LOL. I'd also love a golf type shirt, or a s/s buttonup that I can wear to work (until they yell at me anyway). Tees in silkscreen are OK, but embroider the golfs/buttonups. Maybe pegasus on the breast, lettering across the shoulders?

For the cap...did you ever get my email about the older one I'd like to find? It's a cotton twill with no support in the front, so it doesn't stand up way tall or anything. I want to say it even had a plastic support in the bill, instead of cardboard or whatever. But I like those shapes - I'm tall enough, don't need a hat that's going to stand up like a billboard making me even taller! I can resend the email if you want.

For stickers...reflective, reflective, reflective. At least in a small (helmet-sticker, 1"-2") size. It'd be great to not only pimp EBR, but gain some visibility at the same time : ) Of course, larger sizes for bikes / trucks / lockers / etc., and non-reflective as well...but some available reflective colors would be cool. I'm guessing die-cut vinyl would be the way to go, since I don't see a shaped background or anything on the logo. Also if there's a small, reflective sticker...that would make a great "with purchase" freebie as opposed to a larger bike- or window-size sticker.

Patches...I'm not huge on, but I can't sew. That might have something to do with it : )

Flexfit hats with the Pegasus logo on front and Erik Buell Racing on the back at the bottom.

+1 good quality doesn't fade right away shirts.

+1 Eweaver. There are lots of sources on the net for real American made T-shirts.

Beware of stuff made in Mauritius, which is only technically American.

+1 on quality over cheapness.

I have to disagree on the tight shirts. I am sorry, but I hate the last two Buell shirts I bought because of the tight fit. I normally wear large and those things fit like mediums. I have my opinions on the tight shirt look, but lest I offend someone, let me just say it's not my style.

Almost all shirts are tight on me, and not around my chiseled pecs. Think Homer Simpson.

I like the t shirts that are real soft but I will wear any of them as long as it is to support EBR.

the hats I really like are the flex hats every one is talking about that look fitted since my current buell one is starting to loose its color.

Just tell me the price, I'll send the money.

A box full of random goodies!

Now the race bike should be pretty much ready to go.

+1 on the nice T-shirts.

For ball caps, PLEASE make them adjustable. Those elastic-banded ones that Buell used for a while are NOT suited for us big-meloned folks.

I can't stand the adjustable hats. The elastic hats do come in a lot of sizes from child through xx large.

Nice quality t-shirts, and not the fitted type. +1 with Ratbuell's black Hanes Beefy-T suggestion. I like print on both sides, too.

I like the velcro hats, the recent black pegasus hat with the small Buell on the bill is one of my favorite fits.
