Send them (E_B_R)the link so that they as the legal owner of that trademark can file a complaint with ebay. |

if they dont have time to contact customers then they wont have time to bother with my email it really is crazy how much Buell stuff is coming out of Hong Kong and Malaysia (knock off stuff, not talking about where parts are made and all of that stuff) |

You can report the item to eBay and see if they'll do anything. |

I've reported a shitload of Templeton ripoffs to eBay and every one of them was removed before it was sold. |

the worst part about this is that Erik and his employees are far too busy with the building of the new 1190RS to actually take time out to get involved with this kind of crap. Just don't support this non-sence! |

I believe HD legal been told not to spend any time defending Buell intellectual property. Probably a dead end there. |

Kind of a " good thing" that HD is not pursuing folks. IP laws are funny. Once you fail to defend, you can't pick and choose. In addition, I see from looking at the government website, that HD ha abandoned most the Buell IP rights. |

good to see it gone, sorry to hear you didnt get to see it, it was SO goofy looking. It was a pegasus, but nothing REMOTELY close to what they are using now |
