Is H-D going to continue to honor Buell warranties after Buell is gone?

I'm not sure what to do about it really. I'm gonna call the salesman and see what he says. I can't imagine they would discount it to heavily.

So is Buell going out of business or just going out on their own?

Oh that video is horrible. He looks like he is about to burst into tears. I have MANY friends that ride Buell and love them. Sad to hear.

I wouldn't do anything.....I'd sit and wait for the call. And then say that you need time to reconsider. Let THEM do the offering/begging

YOU are in control here. I know you don't want to be a dick to this guy....but he's likely in the unemployment line soon

I gave the guy a courtesy call this morning after I found out about the news. I told him I was uneasy about the situation and would have to sit down and talk to him about the motorcycle tomorrow. He was completely understanding that this news changes the value of the bike.

I'm halfway expecting him to tell you it is now a "collectors item" and consequently has increased in value.
