From a local report we had here, it seems like the India bosses have given Eric Carte Blanche, stating that they need him more than he needs them. Not only are they looking at the race spec machines but dripping the technology down into their biggest markets which is India and Asia. Their small machine sales make the rest of the worlds figures look anorexic.

Good for him. Harley's loss.

At first hearing of the Hero venture visions of the Harley debacle were dancing in my head and I was a bit pissed but after seeing like reports as you mention I am very excited for the future of EBR. I am a little biased as an avid Buell enthusiast I can not tell you how fun the bikes are I'd rather show ya :D .

For something like stunting they are near ideal with super tourque of the Vtwin and a dry oil sump and belt drive. I like twisty riding more and they are a hoot to flick around. The previous Buell including my CR are not the fastest bike but pure fun they are for twisty mountain roads. BTW after seeing some of your S Africa pics awhile back BUCKET LIST upgrade in order :mrgreen:

Any time, SA has to be a really cheap place to come to with our Dollar / Rand exchange rate and if you come to JHB. I got spare rooms. :D
