I heard that...but getting HD to do anything for a Buell rider when the company was still open was tough.

QFT!!! Another reason I didn't buy... just their attitude when you went in and asked about Buell was enough to turn me around.

There are/were a few good dealers out there that actually cared. But they are few and far between.

Never mind it may take 8 years to get said parts... and then it's "oh well"

No doubt, I'd be for that.

True story, hoping since it's the "25th anniversary edition" and has his "signature" on it, maybe it will be worth a bit more... maybe...

You never know, it may gain worth eventually... I guess you have to weigh these problems against the insanely low price you paid for the bike. Rae Rae was just talking about a $5000 rebate which they use as a down payment basically allowing you to walk out with a $11,000 bike for a loan on $6000 and zero money down. Not bad.
