Buell accessories like shirts, pins, pens and magnets. Have you ever seen the folks that flock to Hard Rock Cafe stores and buy up their stuff? Buell has a following as well. Pricing is definately something to consider as well, as HRC takes note of too.

Okay when I'm on travel I like to find the local Buell dealer and see what they have, trinket wise. I'd like to see Buell come out with and dealers support some inexpensive accessories that have the location or dealer name on them. I'd like for them to be different enough that I would want to buy one from each location. There is only one reason I would buy the same kind of shirt from two different locations, if it was from East Troy, WI and where I live.

Hard Rock Cafe is cool in those respects to clothing, Buell accessory department could you take note of this?

T9r- You know what I like about your reference to Hard Rock? Theirs is a simple and clean logo.
One of the things that had kept me out of much of the HD clothing was the fact that I could not seem to buy a shirt with some type of subtle HD endorsement. I didn't feel as though an eagle in flight observing a wolf draped in an American flag stepping on a snake writhing in a skull really captured who I was as a rider.
Same with Buell clothes. Some of the stuff is a little out there for me as a consumer. If they would print a simple tshirt in a few colors (like their dry release tshirt) I would snap them up.

THE DEALERS WON'T CARRY IT. They say it won't sell. Heck I can't even buy a tshirt at any of my local buell dealers.

I love the concept and wish there was more buell stuff available to buy. I wish buell would offer it direct via a web site I would buy it. I have begged an pleaded for shirts at AD Farrow they refuse to stock them.

I give up. Screw them went I buy the next one it looks like a cross country ride from cityslickers place.

I have ordered from liberty....pretty much one of everything they had in my size. Great service I might add. No muss no fuss. I am still looking for the button up the front buell racing shirt.

Note that some of the sizes have sold out since I originally posted these. Contact us to see if we still got your size (at least 'til I update it). We also have some "Buell" and "Buell Racing" patches available (I gotta take some pictures). I'll be meeting with a t-shirt supplier later this week on some NEW designs. I'll keep y'all posted...

Southern Tier Harley in upstate NY has some shirts with their local on them. Not many but a couple to choose from.

Their selection is growing slowly but surely. Now if they could get a guy with a brain in the parts dept they'd be perfect.

Yeah well . . . I'm pushing XXL these days. Be sure to drop Michelle a note at Liberty. I'd be willing to bet on her. . . the folks at Liberty "Get It".

P.S. - The last time I was there I think there were a few "Erik Buell & The Thunderbolts" shirts near the front counter as well . . . .

Okay why for the inconsistency in pricing among dealers. Just because something has an MSRP doesn't mean you have to mark it at that. Price it right and they will come like bees to honey.

I picked up that grey Buell hat for $10 in PA and it was a brand new item. I think they did raise the price but not to $20.
