The all carbon and airbrushed XBr is mine and the black and yellow is my dads. he bought his back in 04 as a brand new bike. and i envied him so much so when i turned 18 i went looking for one, but couldn't find one in Denmark, so I looked at ebay and found one in London, one owner and with 1200 km on the clock. I jumped on the plane and drove it back from UK to Denmark the week after i won the auction, sadly i had to wait almost 2 years before i could afford the insanely high tax(250%) that we have on all bikes and cars here in Denmark. So I spent that time thinking about how i thought a Buell should look like.
And I think i got the love for bikes from my dad. when I was little i used to watch him build HD from the ground up.
I see your problem. Im glad I just have my license for fun, it's more og less useless for the job i have.
I wish Denmark wasn't as flat and boring as it is. I have to go to Germany or Sweden to get some hills or curvy roads.
That is so true and I really dont care that there is better bikes out there, I still find myself standing and just looking at my XB for long periods of time once in a while, because it just looks so good. And I don't think I would ever get that same feeling if I owned a Honda or another jap bike.
Okay I remember I really liked your customer service back then. And I need to put in a order for a few bits and pieces i need for my EBR in the beginning of next month before you give the shop away.
QtheBuelligan, the pic in your garage:
no wifes, just bikes - a wet mans dream!
Hello Marco,
the rear carbon fender is from the 1125, the front fender from the XB.
They are from Ilmberger in germany.
Best regards, Norbert

Yeah, great, thats really cool when you and your father have 2 customized Buells.
And i know these crazy actions to get one.
I know about the high tax in denmark too. 2 years of waiting is really horrible. Respect for this!
But growing up with a HD building father must be a little boys dream. You´re a lucky guy!
I`ve you come to germany, feel welcome at our home.
We always have fresh coffee, a bed to sleep if you want to drive - i take the time to do it with you.
You know the tail of the dragon (deals gap) in USA?
Thats where we live in germany, its called "Sauerland" and here are only hills, woods and curves.
And Tanja, my wife has really good cooking skills.
Now its your choice.....
I will never forget 3 rounds on a little track with a Triumph Street Triple.
First round:
"Wow, motorcycle riding can be so easy?"
Second round:
"Damn, it drives like a train in curves!"
Third round:
"What the hell - is this boring!"
And i dont need a fourth....
Thank you.
We always see us more than Buell riders as a dealer.
And we treat our customers like we want to be treated. Its our simple rule.
But we are happy to have our normal life back in a few weeks.
Than i have the time to work on my S1.
See some pics of our bikes here:
