"Fiberglass is made the same way as the carbon fiber."

Where is the fiberglass bike?

I believe the one Rob bought is 'glass.

The vid says all the structural bits are CF, regardless of bodywork. Only the external/cosmetic bits change, per AMA rules.

IIRC, all the "carbon edition" bikes are black and bare CF. The colored bikes are 'glass.

That is freekin' awesome!

Can anybody say "Formula 1/ Indy Car" type and quality?

Why do I have the desire to leave my life behind and run North to grab a position in a factory?

I love my wife and kids and grand-kids, the pets, my land and business, the mountains and roads of East Tennessee. I hate Northern winters, with limited riding seasons, and nasty old road salt, aching body parts, and dark winter days.

But DAMN IT! My qualifications could possibly make me a skilled janitor!....awesome!

Eh shit.....she just caught me, she says she won't let me go.....I will slink quietly back into my shop to weld and paint something.

I think Erik's work is the exact opposite of anything made in China

I would rather think that Erik's work is that of a true American.

Fighting tooth and nail, everything on the line, for a quality product you put your soul in.

That video reveals a small specialty boutique motorcycle race shop – kind of like the McLaren of the motorcycle world.

Very similar ideology, as well:

While I think it’s interesting and cool, I’ll never drive $1,000,000 McLarens or ride a $40,000.

Erik seems like he’s found a home – good for him.

How about a 1.5 million dollar LeMan's winner?





Well, I didn't drive it, I just had a beer with it!

The Fiberglass Erik Buell Racing 1190RS is beautiful. Amazing what color can do to the lines of an already beautiful bike.
