Harley-Davidson Shuts Down Buell, Plans To Sell MV Agusta

Isn't Harley based in Milwaukee?

That's when I quit riding. I watched the same thing happen to guitars over the past 10 years. I refuse to buy a Korean, Mexican, Chinese, Taiwanese, or any other "an" or "ese" produced guitar. I'd rather chop my fingers off than play a guitar produced by a bunch of 10 year old sweat shop workers. Same will be true for bikes.

I 2nd that. Personally I won't buy that junk either. You get what you pay for. The mentality of always buying the cheapest item available is one of the reasons that so many products are built with "sweat shop" labor.

This all sounds completely retarded to me. Buell is paying now for Harleys retarded decision to buy MV Agusta. They go and spend a ton of money for another motorcycle company and then go OH CRAP! we can't afford this. Buyers remorse in the worst way. They screwed the pooch, and Buell, on this one. Good job Harley Davidson, you retards.

I’m hoping Moto Morini will keep on chugging along under their bankruptcy laws
Cause boy do I want one of those frogs in my garage…..

I would love to see a real US superbike come out of this. Buell was an interesting concept and I though outshone harley in many ways RIP Buell.

For some reason I have more confidence in victory breaking the mold
and building something other then a custom or a cruiser or whatever you call a Harley type bike
Beside their “Harley’s” are way nicer

Ducati is making life difficult for other small sport bike brands. If you are to believe their figures they are having very good years in a bad economy. They sure do have some impressive bikes with very good financing and they gave dropped prices to a level that is drawing new customers. With their pedigree in sport bikes thats a hard combination to compete with.
