I always thought Buells were made in the good old USA. I guess I was wrong. Check out this e-bay ad:http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/2008-Buell-1125r-Du cati-Aprilia-Low-Miles-/130432364081?pt=US_motorcy cles&hash=item1e5e5fee31 "This may just be the best kept secret of Italy this past decade! Yes, I wrote Italy!" "Treat yourself to the most affordable Italian road/race warrior – you will not regret the purchase!" | ||

Erik Buell lied to us all. | ||

I think it was a conspiracy started by his brother - Eddie | ||

Dear dec111956, Don't want to step on any toes, but Buells are not made in Italy but rather Troy, Wisconson. The engine is a joint effort between Rotax (Austrian) and Buell designers. Hope this helps. BTW Buell builds a great motorcycle! - 96pmd | ||

FYI, Buells were made in East Troy, Wisconsin. I Don't remember the street address but it was on Buell Drive. Been to five Buell Homecomings there. Hope to attend many more in the future. | ||

His ad also states - "Oh also. It's made in the good old USA! Thank you Buell for an amazing machine!" Maybe he was just trying to say the bike was as good as an Italian bike in a strange way or something?? | ||

The XB frames were made by Verlicchi in Italy. | ||

that pic of the bike looks like the "Danny DeVito" part of the movie "twins" if the 1125CR was the "Arnold Schwarzenegger" part. | ||

The Internet builds a strong case for the bell shaped curve distribution model. There are some genuinely stupid people out there. I just had the most amazing eBay / pay pal experience I could have ever imagined. The guy was going to teach me a lesson. He most certainly did. | ||

Ugh, apologies to all...I started in on the brew a bit early today and am posting faster than my brain is comprehending what it's reading...DESIGNED in Europe, but BUILT in China... Sorry, I'm done now.  |
