HD has owned 100% of Buell since 1998. He does not have the rights to his own name.

I wonder what will happen as far as aftermarket and parts availability.

After market has always been really shitty.

And so has parts availability...
I say after market stays the same, and oem gets harder and harder to find.

Dunno where this is, but at that price, I don't care how ugly it is.

I see Buell/HD salesmen do have a sense of humor. :lol

Humm as already mentioned maybe they will resurface as a HD sportbike instead of a Buell.
