This same windscreen was auctioned once before at around $300 starting bid. I PMed the seller during the last auction and found out they are selling the Uly too. I think that is sort of cheesy. They should just give the windscreen to the person they sell the bike to. The wife is actually running the auction. She said in her email that they were selling the bike to buy a boat instead. I heard at the dealer that he dropped the Uly, she freaked, and is now forcing him to sell it. The bike was brought into the dealer for repair after the mishap. Apparently, it needed almost nothing done to it. This was the first Uly bought in my area. I have the second, but I didn't get a numbered screen. |

Yeah, I met the guy briefly when I picked up my bike. The sales guy introduced us. I even gave him one of my business cards. I was sort of hoping we would ride together sometime. |

Keep your eyes open for another one to be listed soon - the guy I bought my bike off wouldn't give me the signed windshield that he got with it - said he thought it would fetch a lot on ebay - said he was going to list a start bid of $400 Several weeks after having bought the bike, I managed to meet da Man (thanks Court), who was more than happy to sign my flyscreen... ...priceless |

OK I'll fess up. I bought, and received it today. My bike is coming in January from the same dealer that this guy got his from. So now I have bags, a signed windshield and no bike. I wanted it, and I bought it. I like it. |

You'd have to be a waterhead to prepay that much for maintenance. |

As a new Buell owner I'm not hip to these "Erik sightings". Where do you guys run into him at? Does he tour the dealerships or something? I'm thinking about a road trip to the factory this summer. Would be cool to see where my bike was made. I've never owned a bike that wouldn't require a long flight to see the factory. |

Chad go to the Homecoming. It's usually the same week as the AMA race at Road America. I was there last summer (working), but it was still fun. Got Eric to autograph my crew shirt. Nice guy, he's always carrying a pen too. Cheers Brett |

Do you have an agenda? I'd be interested in doing that if I don't have an MSF course scheduled that weekend. Teaching schedule should be completed sometime in mid Jan. |
