Ass hole and Rubber literally makes up things for their postings because they don't have anything else of value. They were the ones that started the "story" that EBR was bought out by Bombardier a few years ago then claimed it was a joke. The assholes from that site even posted here, then tried to claim we deleted the post to cover it up at Erik's request.

Don't give those douches your business by clicking on any of their links.

Every EBR rep that has made any AX comments have already said that it won't be an 1190. If A&R wants to make up stories they should at least make them sound authentic.

Most the stories have had bogus information .....there have even been a couple of interviews of folks that were represented as "EBR marketing" employees .....

Make it a hybrid plugin vehicle that gets 150mpg and then I'll be impressed and buying.

I don't want much I would be happy with the AX just like my 06 with a bigger tank and ABS, maybe better heat control. Keep it simple!

Seems like the market is kinda saturated with 1200cc big sport/ADV/whatever bikes.

Boy, as someone who has periodically lusted after a KTM 690 Endure, if EBR were to make something along that line, I'd have a hard time resisting...

I was ready to trade in my '06 on a '10 when they pulled the plug. Then I began looking hard at a Track diesel that was soon to be imported and they pulled the plug on it!
Seems like no one is making a bike that interests me.

If I was going to buy a bike today, it would be a 2010 Blast.

I want them to bring back the Ulysses and develop it so it has no issues. I prefer it to any other bike on the road.

It would be nice to see a couple of versions. A stripped down big supermoto style bike and an adventure bike with luggage and frame mounted fairing.
Not sure I fancy going back to chain drive though.....

Erik said that the cubed Blast was the pinnacle of mass centralization.

Any way you cut it, the ADV market is making the NUMBERS - Logic would seem to dictate another Ulysses oriented bike would run up the Sales Report on EBR and the dealers - the competition is fierce with KTM, BMW, Ducati all on top and Triumph in the middle, Suzuki, Yamaha and now Kawasaki at the bottom on the price line.

So this AX is gonna have to be a high fly ball, priced right in the middle, and meet the Ulysses expectations without the BSnBaloney the Uly suffered.

IMHO - AX is not the name of the highly venerated Ulysses replacement - A Buell ADV bike is always going to be know as the Ulysses...
