I don't know if it has been previously posted but this article is pretty interesting.

One of the most candid and revealing articles I ever read out the company and the man.
Thanks.

While looking for venture capital to expand the business, Harley called. "They bought 49% and left me with 51% for five years," Buell says, "but the most interesting part was that they left me in control because they said, 'We'll probably screw it up'."


couldn't have said it better myself!

Court, that must have been a long ride you took on Saturday afternoon. I know, those BMW's are great. I especially loved thrashing my mates RG1200 across the Yorkshire Moors.

Anyway, I was wondering if you'd be making a welcome return to MY 'argument thread' where you posted some rather inflammatory comments about me. It's just that I can't help but wonder if your 36 hour absence on BadWeB since was due to your busy lifestyle, or just avoidance tactics you use often in these situations when someone gives you a piece of your own medicine? Anyways, not to ruin a great thread (not this one - mine) your presence would be greatly appreciated over there, where perhaps you could continue to steer the comments towards a much more harmonious and jolly BadWeB.

I've asked that everyone cease responding to Sean's confrontational/inflammatory posts. Please honor my request.
