Mr. Buell, Ladies and Gents,

I'm about to head home from Iraq here in the next month (US Army) and like most here, have it all planned out here to get a motorcycle. I want to buy American, and I want to buy new - and having always have wanted a Buell, it's time. This will be the first brand new bike I've ever bought, first brand new vehicle for that matter.

I wanted to know the chances of putting together something special like a factory tour, and something custom in the bikes details - something cosmetic, paint or otherwise.

What are your thoughts? Is this possible?

Thank you!
Craig

I know Buell doesn't build one-off customs at the factory, but there are certainly Buell dealers who can do so. As far as a tour is concerned, I know a number of owners have had tours, so I am guessing it is pretty likely you could get one.

Can you actually buy a Buell directly from the factory? I think it'd be cool to purchase one fresh off of the line. Think it's possible?

No you can not. It's been discussed in the past and there are lots of hurdles, legal and logistical.

Now for the good news . . . . the folks at Buell, which include veterans from Iraq Tours, would love to have you visit and show you around.

If you need help setting it up just drop me a note and I'd be pleased to get you all the information to arrange a visit.

Thanks. That's kind of a bummer, was hoping to do the whole thing in one shot.

Take care,
Craig

Buy one at a local dealer (Hals, Uke's, House) and have them deliver it to East Troy for you, ready when the tour is done!
