isnt that almost Cute. I dont think my chunky butt will fit on that, I will compress those shocks to no rear travel at all. Why do I get the feeling that the 250 will be way too small and the 450 will be too tall, damn damn damnity damn

Darn you, Bubba, you weren't supposed to ride that until the dealer show! The seat height is too low? What? After the Ulysses complaints we thought that would be just about right!
I wonder if we can get that seay height changed before the show?!

I'd pay good money to see all 7'-4" of Blake on that!

Hard to believe it started almost 25 years ago like this. This is Court and Dave Gess back in the day.LOL

Let me in the leggo room of that assembly line, I will make that seat height fit, but I am stealing parts from every other bike in the line up. I would pay extra for the chance to do that, pick the block and walk the bike all the way through its 22 stations to get the exact bike that I wanted from the factory.

LOL Oh brother. Too funny y'all.

Court, I'll race it if you will. Bring one to Oak Hill this Summer and we'll form a killer mini-endurance team. Leave the knobbies on; I know some shortcuts.

If I'm 7'-4", it's only in my own mind.

Hey . . .the engineers at Buell have dispatched me riding some pretty zany stuff over the years.

The "easy" one was taking the 3 different height windscreens and changing them out every 1,000 miles.

On the other end of the spectrum was the day they decided to make a little change in frame geometry to see what it would do to high speed stability. After the mocked frame was done Erik told them "give it to Court" . . . it was, in those days, the Buell equivalent of "see if Mikely likes it".

Well this one was a doozy . . . remind me to tell you sometime!

: )

"remind me to tell you sometime!"
Court, that would be a good name for your book. It would, no doubt, rival the best of Ed Hertfelder!;)
