I formally invited him to become a BW sponsor a couple of days ago.

He said he planned to and that he would probably become "official" in December.

To quote the father in the movie Billy Jack. . . . "on what grounds? . . That my son is an idiot".

Erik Buell Racing has been in business 7 hours. In addition, they'll likely be selling only a fraction of their business to Badwebbers.

My bet is that you will see them . . . You know . . . Like when they get employees, inventory and a building, here as a sign of support to the Buell community.

Your senseless ranting makes you appear immature and unwise.

I'll tell you one thing, if they don't become A sponsor we should not promote or use Erik Buells products!
Sorry my lame attemp at humor)
Rex - Oops. as many times as I've corrected people I can't believe I did that.

You know I don't really care one way or another beyond someone set rules and owns the site. They have the right to run it as they wish. This thread seems real lame in light of the simple fact that this whole forum is about Buells and why wouldn't Buells in whatever format be promoted whether paying or not? Most all the posts are related to Buells, so should we shut the site down because it promotes Buells? Seems pretty stupid and maybe people need to take a pill, drink a beer, kick back and relax all around.

Sometimes I'm glad everyone doesn't own tubers.

We don't argue in Old Skool.

When one gets chopped, yeah you'll get some flak for sure.

We simply help each other and ride our bikes more than our keyboards.......

Gotta break in some tires

What is it with this 1125 board?

Why are we so wrapped up in monetary exchanges?

Erik Buells contribution to these parts is immeasurable and invaluable. Suffice it to say, a year or three of complimentary sponsorship would seem reasonable while things get rolling.

But I have no say in such matters, just thinking out loud.

I'm going back to the Old School board - this place is like a bunch of junior high-school girls.

Concur.

I wish the 1125 board had 1/10 of the Blast section's civility.

I don't need a script, in Opera web browser, you can right click on the page and select auto refresh, I got it set to the fastest it goes, which is 5 seconds : )

Ok, ok, different method, same results : )

At 5 seconds per refresh, that still only amounts to 17,280 a day. You must be getting some help : )

Or have ten open tabs in your browser...

Why, with High Country Buell, of course.

Xl1200r that's what most of us have been saying all along. I am surprised this board is free. Actually if we all got along they would probably have to rename the site. (Maybe Goodweatherbikers.com were everyone gets along and is not worried about the sponsors and shares info like a message board was design). Just a thought?
