Hell, there's a familiar face at roughly 20 seconds...

Derek Yuen was another former Buell employee.

I didn't know that. Interesting! BMC lives on at Zero!

BMC lives on in a lot of businesses. That would make a good book.

If you only knew . . . . Derek was my roommate while I was at Buell and he's "Abe Smart" . . . . an incredible engineer . . . . overflowing with class and in the best shape of anyone I've ever known.

I am thrilled to see him.

When EBR was on the block in 2015, I spoke to one of the designers for Polaris ORV, ( who happens to be my cousin). I told him I would be thrilled if Polaris snapped up the company, as the 1190 ET is a ready made GP race bike platform and a turnkey sportbike line would be a relative bargain. His answer was Polaris leadership at the time had no interest in GP bikes, but "we would love to see Polaris snag a lot of EBR's talent, before they scatter. If they can produce a bike like that with their limited cash, just imagine what they could build for us."

I REALLY want to ride one!
140 lb of tq is crazy and would be a ton of fun.

Trust me, I have the standard S model, and even 80 ft/lbs of torque in a 400lbs motorcycle is stupid fun!
