GREAT FIND! it looks like there's plenty of room in the facility to accommodate another assembly line (or two) for the new models! GO EBR!

Erik the engineer at heart, wanting to explain every little part.
Very Cool find, maybe now ppl will understand the $40k tag.

I loved that set of wheels. not quite as bulky as ours, but not a mundane spoke wheel either. They must a b*tch to clean though.

Nice vids. Was hoping he'd at least crank it up and rev a bit...

Wow, just thinking... now thats how I would like to buy MY next Buell, straight from the builder.. show up, meet Erik, get a factory tour, bs the guys, get break-in and maintainance tips, recommendations, crack a "red bull" or two, etc. etc... that would be worth the price of admission! there is just no love lost from most dealerships.. seems like your just a commission "sale" on some less-than-knowledgeable salesmans list.. I'd also rather see all the profit go straight to EBR!

That's the cool thing about Erik, he is a motorcycle guy who's passinate about what he's doing not just a business man trying to make a buck off what he thinks will sell in numbers. That's the kind of person i like spending my money with.

been looking and thinking about the new 1199 ducati, but i got to say that if this 1190 came to aus, i would be on it. damn nice detail and passion in that bike.

Saw a the back end of the RW750 in the beginning there's a Tube frame across from the Uly. :)

There's atleast 20k in parts (labor and materials) then you add all the r and d time! Easily worth the price tag.

i'm not saying its not in there, i'm saying i wouldn't pay it!! lol! i believe he's got every bit of that in the bike, but i just can't see paying for it when there may be a production bike down the road for a 1/4th of the cost.


that's just too rich for my blood! that's all!

ok that really deserves a special lottery ticket to be taken tomorrow. If you are a motorcyclist of any kind and don't find that impressive then you don't have a pulse.
