Good article. Check out he photos though.....

Starts with a Buell and ends with a Buell. I just want to know who proofed the captions. Just where does a '04 9R sell for $13K and a 12R go for $15K. Someplace I don't want to shop.

Right on Bubba, I said something along those lines a while back, & I still think the brands would tailor in together nicely.

I thought that was the deal. It was just real misleading to think that was in US dollars, it would scare me away......

I was in a dealership in southern Indiana(whilst in Louisville) that had Aprilia on the floor with the HD and Buells. Made for a nice tie in.

I did not that was home for you......Yeah, Bloomington was the one. Nice shop, friendly types working in there.... I tried to hit the nearby shops while in the area. A very different experience in the dozen shops I hit, three would rank as garnering revisits. Bloomington, Indy South, a shop on the east side of Cinci.

Now back to your normal programming.....

Bubba, I talked to Jim Markland at Bloomington HD on Saturday. They had an open house of some sort. He just had his black 9S's wheels powdercoated flat black but weren't on the bike yet and I didn't get to see them. He mentioned they sold you your first Buell. He was interested to hear my drummer, so I started it up for him. He seems like a cool guy.
