http://www.powersportsbusiness.com/features/2004/0 5/05/aprilia-hero-plan-venture/ Hmmm, I wonder if we might see an EBR scooter in the future. Also, Hero plans on buying stock in EBR http://www.powersportsbusiness.com/news/2012/02/28 /hero-motocorp-plans-to-buy-stock-in-ebr/ | ||

Way beyond buying stock: http://www.motorcycle-usa.com/576/12316/Motorcycle -Article/Erik-Buell-Racing-Teams-with-Hero-MotoCor p.aspx see: http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/messages/4062/669078.html?1329929639 (Message edited by fahren on February 29, 2012) | ||

The Hero/EBR race bike colors hark back perfectly to the original orange/white/black RS color scheme. Awesome. | ||
| Rex |
that is cool, that with EBR, Hero can expand into other countries now. I would love to hear comments from the HD boardroom about this one. | ||

rex: if it's even being brought up they are being blown off as a fad and or not a threat to the chrome cruiser market. | ||

Court, you are soooooooooo stealth!  | ||
| Boogiman1981 |
saw court had posted and by the time i clicked it was gone... | ||

Hero can't export "Overseas" But EBR can... How cool will it be when the new Mega EBR Factory starts cranking out bikes for export to Europe... Asia... WORLD WIDE!!! all under the nose of Juneau Ave. This is more fun to watch than a H-D rider turning a nice sweeper into a 10 point turn!! | ||

Court, you are soooooooooo stealth! I think he just posts a lot of things and then immediately says to himself "Hmmm, I shouldn't have posted that." | ||

They are in talks to buy Ducati also. | ||

Court must be tied and debriefed INTENSELY could take weeks | ||
| Rex |
So , will homecoming be in India now? | ||
| Doz |
EBR's in India, not going to happen. At least not the 1190. The bullet is about as big a bike you can get over there (for the masses) | ||

Hero is also looking at Ducati http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2012-03-02/hero-moto corp-of-india-in-talks-with-bankers-on-possible-du cati-purchase.html Do they want to out-Honda Honda ? | ||

I think VW bought Ducati. | ||

Different potential financiers are approaching MANY different potential buyers. It's like they're saying "Pssst buddy, wanna buy some Ducati? Here, have a hit." The guy takes a toke on the Ducati crack pipe and says "no thanks." Lots of pushers, lots of POTENTIAL customers. | ||

Once they take that hit of Ducati crack they are hooked and will pour vast sums of cash into the venture before they wake up ans seek help! | ||

Ducati, like a beauty queen, is fun to look at . . . not so much to own. | ||

Man, am I getting excited. I have waited almost 30 year for a day like this! I can't even imagine how wound up Erik must be; he had been chasing this dream for years before I met him! | ||
| Wolfridgerider |
I would LOVE to be there!! But, I'm also looking forward to seeing ALL the action on tv.... I'll just turn it up real LOUD.... start the Uly in the garage, open the door so I get a little fume action going.... Maybe I should go get a couple gallons of VP Race fuell so it smells REAL | ||
| Boogiman1981 |
can't wait! | ||

Mark, you need to do a sneak on down to Daytona last minute trip like you did 2 years ago. | ||
| Wolfridgerider |
Ken and I had good time mess'n with Vern! Ya never know what might happen.... but I think I'm gonna be home for this one. |
