    When they bought MV Agusta they had revenues from a demographic that was stable, but getting older every year.

    MV and Buell were partly attempts to capture a broader (younger) market.

    You wonder of course that without them, and with the HOG market approaching walking sticks.....

    I'm looking forward to the testing the Trike.

    USD vs NZD is in a good place for that, too.

    I picked the wrong year to be broke, didn't I?

    Aye - but I don't think there is a correct one.

    This is a real shame, Buell was on my list so now the Street Triple is looking more likely.
    Game on.

    Contact Bumpus H-D Buell (I'm not kidding) and ask for Jeremy - is where I'd start.

    I don't think that price pictured was from them, but dude is on my buddy list.

    It might also be worth confirming local pricing movements too.

    If I hears I'll spill.

    I have approx 400 used rusty nails and a bread bag of beer bottle caps if any Buell owners want to do a trade.

    Might not be willing to part with all the nails depending on year and condition of bike, But we can discuss.

    ANZA sold a CR the day before the news was released, wouldn't even discount it to the tune of a high bar set.

    Owning a rare/discontinued/difficult to get parts for bike should not stop us from being individuals,or else we may as well all buy a GN 250 and be excited about parts availability and fuel economy.

    i thought harley realised they need to stop being a one trick pony, but obviously they really are up to their neck in the brown sticky stuff over there, as least triumph have good sales news at present with the thunderbird being sold out until april, not bad for a new model, perhaps hd could take a few lessons, i love my harley but it would of been nice if they could of finished it off inthe factory like all other biker manufacturers do, so when will we see the demise of hd

    There is irony in your post Apes - Triumph sold out of Thunderbirds until April - that's Triumphs answer to Harleys cruisers!!!!!!!


    Does anyone else think the Triumph brand is now cooler than Harley?
