Hello Guys, to make this sad and silent time untill EBR opens again going a bit faster, let me show you some pics of the bikes from my wife and me.
We really love what Erik has done and so we cant keep it at one bike.
My first one was a original black XB Ss in 2007 and after a few months i crashed on oil from a Suzuki before me. (Japanese crap!)
From the money of the insurance i build my first dream in green:
At this time, i bought a red XB R too, in my mind as a daily driver, but after i finished the green one, i selled her.
And i rue it untill today.
But i build the red R in a silver one.
I used it first on the road, than for trainings and racing.
So i met in october 2010 Erik for the first time in Oschersleben, germany on the race track.
We race for 4 days and it was unbeliveable to race with 30 XBs and 1125, the track only for Buells.
It was my first time on a podium with congrats from the master himself.
We all was deeply impressed, how friendly, likeable and moderate Erik is.
In Jeans, boots, a sweater and always a look on the bikes. No boss with graces, only a real motorcycles enthusiast.
In december 2009 i bought one of the last XB for my wife as a christmas present. (Yes, i think i like her..... )
It was a SCG and i give her a R-front and work on some details.
My wife ride her in Oschersleben too and after the races we made a custom show.
Erik was one of the judges and he made her winning the first place.
4 weeks i must speak to my wife with " my beloved queen....."
Here is a pic of us from 2010:
Thats part one.
Best regards, Norbert

Here is mine in Blue- also have the Cherry bomb plastics and red wheels to swap when the mood strikes!
If you want a nice storage system for your wheels, I really love my PitBull tire tree. One tree holds two sets of wheels, and the whole stand can be rolled on its own wheels. It takes up very little floor space, keeps your tires from flat spotting, and it looks great. When I went from the Buell to the EBR I sold all my extra Buell wheels, but I plan on doing the same thing with multiple color sets for the EBR in the future.

Here is a picture from 1990 aboard my RR1000 #005 at Roebling Road Raceway. Won that race on my honeymoon! At this point it was wearing some RC-30 body work if I remember correctly. I can post pic of it with original bodywork at Daytona. About to restore this baby need a rear shock if anyone knows where one ins , Ohlins not WP.
MakingPAIN - with the exception of that Green thing, I had the same bikes 8 years ago.
My first Buell was a 2003 XB9R(White with Blue) and I had a 90" shovel Wide Glide.
Disappointed with the handling of the '08 1125R, Very happy with the 2012 RS Carbon.
Same year I got the 1190(2015) I got a 1991 1200RS Westwind.
