ERIK BUELL ESTABLISHES ERIK BUELL RACING
New Venture Will Build Buell 1125R-based Racing Motorcycles and Supply Racing Parts
Milwaukee, Wis. -- (Friday, November 20, 2009) Harley-Davidson, Inc.
announced today that following the company’s recent decision to discontinue
the Buell motorcycle product line, Erik Buell, Chairman and Chief Technical
Officer of Buell Motorcycle Company, will leave the company to establish
Erik Buell Racing, an independent motorcycle race shop.
Erik Buell Racing will specialize in the supply of race-use-only Buell
motorcycle parts and race preparation services for engines and motorcycles,
and the building and sale of Buell® 1125R-based race-use-only motorcycles
under license from Harley-Davidson, as well as providing technical support
to racers of Buell motorcycles.
“I’m looking forward to helping Buell racers keep their bikes flying,” said
Erik Buell. “We’ve got some exciting race development projects in the works
and it will mean a lot to me personally to see Buell racers competing for
wins and championships in the 2010 season and beyond.”
“I’m pleased that Harley-Davidson is assisting Erik in establishing this
business to continue supporting the racing efforts he has had so much
passion for over the years,” said Buell President and COO Jon Flickinger.
“Harley-Davidson and the Buell Motorcycle Company will always be proud of
their affiliation with Erik, and we wish him well in this new endeavor to
support Buell racers.”
Erik Buell Racing will be based in East Troy, Wisconsin and will be staffed
by Erik Buell and a veteran team of personnel. For more information, after
