MILWAUKEE (November 20, 2009) -

Harley-Davidson, Inc. (NYSE:HOG) announced today that following the company’s recent decision to discontinue the Buell motorcycle product line, Erik Buell, Chairman and Chief Technical Officer of Buell Motorcycle Company, will leave the company to establish Erik Buell Racing, an independent motorcycle race shop.

Erik Buell Racing will specialize in the supply of race-use-only Buell motorcycle parts and race preparation services for engines and motorcycles, and the building and sale of Buell 1125R-based race-use-only motorcycles under license from Harley-Davidson, as well as providing technical support to racers of Buell motorcycles.

“I’m looking forward to helping Buell racers keep their bikes flying,” said Erik Buell. “We’ve got some exciting race development projects in the works and it will mean a lot to me personally to see Buell racers competing for wins and championships in the 2010 season and beyond.”

“I’m pleased that Harley-Davidson is assisting Erik in establishing this business to continue supporting the racing efforts he has had so much passion for over the years,” said Buell President and COO Jon Flickinger. “Harley-Davidson and the Buell Motorcycle Company will always be proud of their affiliation with Erik, and we wish him well in this new endeavor to support Buell racers.”

Ah!!!!!!...pensei que a Buell ia desaparecer......Tem motas tão...
......Pena é o orçamento ser muito pequeno,que adoro essas motas...

Nem são assim tão caras comparadas com outras marcas exóticas.

Temos aqui XB9R por €7500 e uma XB12R por €10500 novas a estrear

Usadas de serviço devem rondar menos €1000 a €1500 (XB12S TT e XB9R)

Sim..são preços acessiveis.....mas se gosto é da XB12 S

Essa naked revira-me os olhos...... .....quando não poder andar mais de R,é mota a ponderar...
