I guess if Dave Mustaine has his own coffee it's only fitting that Erik should have his. Looks like they have several new things up, including the racefan giveaway. They still need a female T-shirt model who can "expand" the EBR Pegasus by a reasonable amount though...  | ||

So, we were all waiting for a new street bike, and instead we got... COFFEE? Okay... I'll take a cup, thanks.  | ||
| Indy_bueller |
Hehe I guess the giveaway was the big announcement. | ||
| Bads1 |
Now lets see if its any good?? But then again everyone here will chug it down just because and say it was awesome coffee. I'll try and give me opinion. I drink alot of coffee and not really any store brands.It'll be interesting to hear why hes dabbling in this?? | ||
| Froggy |
I don't know how anyone can drink coffee in the first place, it tastes worse than beer. | ||

My inlaws participated in the creation of a "signature blend" coffee to commemorate the opening of their new retirement community. We recently bought a pound of "personalized" coffee from a co-worker's child for a school fund-raiser. I'd like to think of the EBR brand one of a world-leading class-act. IMHO, purveying coffee blends to raise funds doesn't lend well to that image. I know $$$ are important to EBR right now, but I think a RatPack-labeled coffee blend "formulated for & inspired by Erik Buell's personal taste" would have been more appropriate. RatPack is expected to sell the swag. Just my 2 cents, and with all the respect in the world for EBR and its core products and customer base (cutting-edge motorcycles and the lunatics who ride them). | ||

Just ordered my new E-B-R tshirt. Hope my name gets pulled from the hat and if it does I wanna go to Barber.... hint hint. Never been, would love to go! Dogs ate my last one... No joke... wife dropped on the floor on her way to the washing machine Quickly became a tug toy and then quickly turned to shreds | ||

600mg caffeine per cup  | ||

I'm a "coffaholic" . . . I start at 0400 in the morning and generally have the 2nd pot emptied by sunrise. I also get spoiled having coffee sent from Stumptown and a variety of Portland's best coffee joints . . so I'm willing to give this s try. There are a couple pretty funny stories about Erik and coffee . . . I see him branding coffee as essentially granting me license to share them.  It'd look bad it I won the trip and Erik found out and cancelled, eh? Fun stuff! Most significantly . . the mere fact that EBR is celebrating a 2nd Anniversary puts them in a VERY small circle of companies. Congratulations to the Elves! | ||
| Ratbuell |
Definitely congrats are in order. So is Court going to bring boxes of the new coffee to the campgrounds now for Homecoming? And froggy...you're hatin on my two main food groups there...careful...lol | ||
| Dfbutler |
Hey guys, Christmas is coming and you could use as gifts. Send in as individual orders and get multiple entries. It would, more importantly, support Erik and the Elves! | ||
| Jaimec |
Oh, I'd DEFINITELY pick Laguna Seca!! | ||
| Badlionsfan |
Don't drink the ebr kool-aid, drink the coffee. Can't wait for next years' "Bold New Blends"! | ||
| Court |
Shouldn't Buell coffee have been packaged in "pods"? (Note: I realize this won't be funny to those unfamiliar with the Kuerig "K cup pods") | ||
| Spank |
K cups would be a great idea...think you are on to something! | ||
| Sifo |
I agree with Froggy on this one. How often does that happen? I wonder what the reaction would be if it was posted that HD was marketing coffee? Congrats to EBR on making it to their third year!  | ||
| Elvis |
I think some people are missing the joke. They wouldn't be where they are without a LOT of coffee.   | ||
| Fast1075 |
H.D. did market coffee and it was passable...a little heavy and low on power, but it smelled good  . Bet the E.B.R. coffee is lighter, easier to make, and will have more punch. How can anyone live without coffee?? Hot, fresh brewed and dark. (woe be unto he who defiles a cup with bovine byproducts and cane sugar). I just ordered some I'll post up about how it tastes. | ||
| Hughlysses |
How can anyone live without coffee?? Apparently Froggy lives without coffee or beer. My mind boggles... | ||
| Kenm123t |
Froggys mom wont let him drink big peoples drinks. | ||
| Ratbuell |
Anyone who's ever met Erik...won't wonder about the coffee connection. No way on this earth anyone can be that energetic, that wired, ALL THE TIME...without help. Might have to order myself some here...I like mine strong enough to stand a fork in (never guess I grew up in a Navy household, wouldya?). And we should convince Froggy how much gas he'd save if he started drinking coffee...lower weight (burning all those calories) means more fuel efficiency, right? | ||

OK... wondering if they sell whole bean? (site is blocked for me at work) | ||
| Hughlysses |
Yes, whole bean or ground. | ||
| Rex |
Put a heater in the pods. You could brew as you ride. | ||
| Hughlysses |
I'm pretty sure if you put a pot of water under the seat of an 1125, it would be boiling by the time you'd ridden 10 miles. | ||
| Froggy |
Put a bag of beans under the XB seat, they will be grinds before you reach the end of your driveway. Ken, if I wanted to drink nasty brown crap, I would scoop it out of the toilet and save myself the money | ||
| Kenm123t |
LOL froggy missed the Starbucks craze They have free wifi | ||
| Slaughter |
WHOLE bean coffee ordered along with banners and shirts. The pits are gonna look GOOD in 2012! | ||
| Froggy |
Starbucks is great! I have an app on my tablet that lets me access my various gift cards. It is awesome, the cashier scans barcodes my tablet displays and it deducts like I had the physical card. Oh, and the Wifi isn't free. |
