First on July 22, second on August 8, ~17 days later. Sunday August 25th was 17 more days; where's teaser pic #3?  (yea, I know you can't define a "trend" with two data points) | ||
| Wolfridgerider |
 checking in.... just in case... | ||

Damn. The crickets are still chirping... | ||

Does this count? NJOY! 1313 | ||
| Hughlysses |
1313- that'd be cool if they had some viral marketing incorporated, like if you find the "secret" spot to click on the photo which makes the crate "open". | ||
| Oldog |
TEASE ! LOL...... | ||

AUSTRALIA??? | ||

Perhaps they just put wheels on the box and call it done? | ||

"Perhaps they just put wheels on the box and call it done?" That and a crate motor. | ||

Anyone here seen the latest Cycle World? There's a short piece on EBR found on pg 26. Nothing new whatsoever, just talking about "things to come" as usual. The article reports EBR/Heros goal is to produce 20k bikes in ....... 2017?!?!?!?! WTF? Can we get a ballpark on current production numbers, please? The rest of the article is just quotes from Erik talking about the Hero partnership - nothing that no one here doesn't already know about. But.... even better than the EBR snippet - The back cover features an Allstate ad with a rider going half-tuck on a black/nuclear blue 1125R. Very nice picture and glad to see the brand still getting exposure (albeit limited). | ||

Yea, I got my copy. Nothing really new there. There was a hint of new info in this article I posted a link to in the EBR/Buell News Forum: http://www.motorcycle.in.th/article.php/Erik-Buell -Racing-Reveal-Future-Goals Here's the quote I thought was very interesting:

They're sandbaggin' us a bit. I'm sure we'll see a "wide range" by '17, but... keep yer eyes open for 2014. VERY interesting statement. | ||

OK, get ready. Posted to EBR's FB page approximately 3 PM EDT today: "Wow, time has been flying by. Maybe a couple more teasers on RX coming soon... Anyhow, the race truck is on the way to New Jersey. Last chance this year on the East Coast to see Geoff, Aaaron and the Team Hero and Team AMSOIL/Hero 1190RS bikes in the AMA Superbike action. We have a few more HP, and the advanced electronics with traction control seems to be working, so it should be exciting! We really want all our fans in the area to come and support us! New Jersey Motorsports Park in Millville NJ. Erik will be there, and some of the Hero partners. So please come, cheer for us, and thank our partners! We couldn't have made it without all of you, so come celebrate on Sat the 14th and Sunday the 15th!" That is confirmation that the photos are indeed the upcoming RX model. | ||

No pic, but an FB post from Cory West about 7:45 EDT tonight: "Just finished cutting some laps on the @ErikBuellRacing #1190RX streetbike at Autobahn CC... I think people are going to be very impressed!" | ||
| Malott442 |
 Cut off the other thread. Technically a teaser pic | ||
| Mr_grumpy |
Don't forget "a wide range of EBR products" includes anything from key-fobs & t-shirts to ecm's & whole bikes. | ||

Another post by Cory West on Facebook last night in response to numerous requests for a photo:

Oh hell no.... slow yellow? I hope it comes in the faster BLACK! Now.... can we talk about what oil to use? | ||
| Whisperstealth |
I use dollar store 10w-30 in my bike. I'm sure it would be fine for the RX as well. No need for that expensive stuff. Not like these bikes get hot or rev high or anything. | ||
| Xdigitalx |
What happened to the trailer pic? ugh... Well..., only a week to go. | ||
| Bolthead |
Oh hell no.... slow yellow? I hope it comes in the faster BLACK! I hear the yellow paint absorbs radar and makes the bike invisible  | ||
| Crusty |
Yellow is a lot sexier than black too. Look what yellow did for the Ulysses:  | ||
| Thumper74 |
I saw the release, the RX and the AX? It's Oct. 12, I don't get to go on my work trip. I'm eagerly awaiting this good news. | ||
| Ferris_von_bueller |
The trailer pic was the current RS with slightly different badging | ||
