Ok I'm not trying to whip a dead horse here, but I was very disappointed today. Here in Quincy, and for 150 miles around, Buell has been very a very poor dealer backing. As well as other places from my own travels. Well there is a concert coming here on March 24th that is put on in part by the local HD shop TNT. It is also sponsored by Buell. after the ad on two different radio stations there is a ad for Buell Motorcycles... Really COOL!!! So on with the disappointment. I decide today to go and get my free knit cap with coupon in hand I ride on down and give it to one of the girls at the desk and she looks at it and says "I've never seen one of these?" She then shows it around to all the other girls... not one of them had ever seen it. So they call over Mr. Manager. Who comes over to them and says "Oh ahh yeah we are all out of those?.?.? Just give him a hat I think there might be some in the back?" So yeah I was happy to get a new hat.. Kinda cool it folds up to fit under the seat in the Firebolt. My big disappointment.... While waiting to get this hat I looked around for any Buells... Guess what. Not a single one on the floor, after all these cool ad for them not a single one. I wish I could sample the ad because it is good, and does say Come on down to TNT and see the new Buell Lightning... And the concert ad says Brought to you by, TNT and BUELL MOTORCYCLES. I don't get it.... Is there money that Buell itself is putting up for this and this HD shop is giving the oldest trick there is the bait and switch? Well we don't have the Buell Lightning, but there are 12 Fatboys over here.....

Kinda odd I thought. Ok rant over....

Ben

Yes, I would love one, I work in a warehouse that has a cooler as a part of it and that was the reason I really wanted one.
Thanks,
Ben

Hey Ben!
I'll bet that dealer has a box of the stocking caps somewhere.
It's too bad they can't "get it"
Call Andy and get the hat.

Andy, thanks for jumping in and taking care of Ben.

Yeah... They've probably got some, and I'm betting that virtually all the employees are sporting theirs at their house, too.

Hey Dave, by the way congrats on the whole new adventure for you.... Now I've gotta come see you for that, my gf was into that some years ago but has since let everything go. Would make for a nice b-day gift for her.
