WOW, I am shocked. I have ridden many Buells and they are superb bikes.

Even got to meet Erik Buell in person and he is a great down to earth guy and awesome innovator.

I think that been under the arm pit of HD was the problem. Once Buell, sort of, parted away from using HD engines and started using Rotax, HD started as well to get tired of Buell being innovating way ahead of HD's conservative vision. You cannot build a chassis, like Buell did, around an engine that is not at the same performance level. Buell chassis needed something more advance, like the Porsche developed V-Rod engine or the superb Rotax.

Well that plus the economy crushed them down.

Sad, very sad news for our motorcycle community.
