Author Message   Ferris_von_bueller Posted on Tuesday, May 12, 2015 - 08:23 pm:          Hootowl Posted on Tuesday, May 12, 2015 - 09:26 pm:        Neat story.   Ezblast Posted on Wednesday, May 13, 2015 - 01:35 am:        Does he own one? I know he owned a customized Blast Boardtracker, and a RR, but did he buy a Ronin? EZ   Figorvonbuellingham Posted on Wednesday, May 13, 2015 - 05:48 am:        Hope Ronin bought race 47 race ecu's.   Hughlysses Posted on Wednesday, May 13, 2015 - 06:16 am:        I wonder if these guys aren't buying up some 1190's right now for a similar treatment?   Pwnzor Posted on Wednesday, May 13, 2015 - 06:52 am:        It's about as ugly as it can be.   Ferris_von_bueller Posted on Wednesday, May 13, 2015 - 07:22 am:        If you watch the video Jay Leno says he owns a modified Buell XB. He also has some nice things to say about Erik Buell.   Pwnzor Posted on Wednesday, May 13, 2015 - 07:32 am:        Yeah... occasionally you can see XB12R serial number 2 in the background when they pan the camera around...   Slaughter Posted on Wednesday, May 13, 2015 - 01:24 pm:        Back in about 04, Hal's did a Superbike build on an XB (barely street legal) and it got brought up "legal" at Glendale HD. Amazing piece of machinery - a' la Mike Ciccotto's AMA Superbike.   Buelliedan Posted on Wednesday, May 13, 2015 - 01:47 pm:        Ronin did indeed buy a 1190RX from me for a special build they are doing.   Hughlysses Posted on Wednesday, May 13, 2015 - 05:36 pm:        Ronin did indeed buy a 1190RX from me for a special build they are doing. Cool! I'll be interested to see how that turns out. Cool video, but I get the impression that Leno, a pretty hard core motorcycle enthusiast, was pretty ignorant of the 1125 (he had no clue to the power output for instance) and I wouldn't be surprised if he'd never heard of EBR. That kind of speaks volumes.

Not all, obviously, but some.   Ferris_von_bueller Posted on Wednesday, May 13, 2015 - 06:08 pm:        He appeared pretty ignorant of Buell tech, although he praised Erik Buell   Oddball Posted on Wednesday, May 13, 2015 - 11:21 pm:        Might have been a good part of the press intros for the RX & SX to have taken them to Jay's Garage. Much like Kawasaki did with the H2. You know a great many will see them and if Jay decided to add to his collection there would be pics from average people who see him out riding.   Jon Posted on Thursday, May 14, 2015 - 02:30 am:        Rotax did not design the engine, Buell did.
