Here's some clarification on what's happening regarding parts, the sale, and the auction (taken from an EBR rider's Facebook post this morning):


You will be able to order parts through the standard ordering process on EBR’s website. Right now, all parts have been taken off the EBR parts store so we can sort through the inventory and pull parts aside that will be kept as warranty and dealer parts. I’d say check back to the EBR website later this week for parts.

As for the liquidation vs. auction;

The liquidation sale will begin June 7 and will run for approx. 2 months, open daily. You can purchase items right then and there. It will be a lot of miscellaneous stuff that was throughout the factory. The auction will be a live & online auction taking place June 8 at the factory and this will be for some larger items like the I.P of EBR, tooling, machinery, etc. There will also be some miscellaneous stuff in the auction as well.

I hope this information helps.

Thanks,

disheartening to look through the pages of items for sale and thinking about all the proud workers that used this equipment.

And what's worse is their fee structure to buy anything. Internet Premium: 18%, plus sales tax, plus shipping and handling. Might be something else I missed as well. I had intended to go up to the factory next week to purchase some stuff, but even those sales will be subjected to ridiculous charges from what I'd heard.

Also on one of the large/expensive lots, "Buyer to sign I.P. Purchase agreement which outlines a 10 year license for Liquid Asset and EBR Motorcycles, LLC to continue usage of the brands and IP in the sale of excess inventory and support of the dealers/riders as needed. Sold as is, where is, no warranty implied."

It also appears to be an 18% buyers premium and then if you're bidding on line an additional 18% internet premium and also 5.5% sales tax. Getting pretty pricey for regular folks!
And then........to top it off depending on the outcome of the IP, EBR name and rights your bid could be disregarded as the winner of the stuff might get everything!

From the auction site, first thing on the list:
"Please note, the sale of lots 1-99 AND 110-178 are subject to the bid of Lots 103 & 179. In the instance that lots 103 and/or 179 are won, you will not be charged for your lot(s). Please call Liquid Asset Partners for further information; 616-719-5917."

I spoke with the parts department this morning.

We will not be able to order parts on the website. All parts must go through the manual process. you have to email the parts dept for the order form and pricing

They had bins of Yellow, red and white plastics, no white side fairings. Some galactic black. I picked through the black and got myself a few good pieces.

Wheels are going for 500$/ set naked, no rotors or bearings.

Set of BPF forks new for $400.

Headlight, full assembly for $175

I scored some good stuff. Race wheel from on of the WSBK rx's. Sutter slipper clutch, another header, keyless gas cap, couple sets of fixed pegs. etc
