    Not sure if anyone has ever seen this but I was trying to find a pic of a Buell engined motorcycle and came across this pic of the dumpster after the Buell shutdown. Apparently they just threw out all the Buells that were in the plant. Wish I could of gotten ahold of the dumpster though. :(

    sighhh, this picture again.... These were test bikes, and due to liability issues they could not be sold to the public.

    Old pic! Those are test mules and QC rejects. Pic was taken in 07 if I remember correctly.

    Yeah - my jaw dropped too the first time I saw that several years back. Test bikes or not; QC rejects or not, that is still a lot of useable parts in the dumper (frames, tires, engine components if not full engines, etc.)

    Those poor Uly's. Anyway as already stated - they are test mules and could not be sold. Anyone have a picture of any of the turbo mules?

    I've always wondered... who took this picture, and are there more?

    Makes me want to start driving by other motorcycle manufacturing plants looking for dumpsters full of motorcycles!
