Hi All,

Happy New Year and all the very best for 2016. I was at HD DG20 yesterday to get a price on some parts and was told by the parts team there that as of 1st January 2016 Harley Davidson will no longer be selling Buell parts or servicing Buell bikes. They said that as of 01/01/2016 they will sell out whatever stock they have and when its gone its gone.

In addition to that they mentioned that someone within UKBEG had bought a large amount of this stock, so the question I have is who that would be? Any help would be appreciated.

Educated guess would be that our very own Tubbs has bought whatever they had left :)

It's as though they want to wipe all trace of Erik Buell from the face of the earth. They obviously make a profit on every part sold and with the recent price hikes it's a bloody big profit margin so you'd think they'd leave the status quo. With the number of buells still on the road here, the states and germany it seems a no brainer to stock parts. Erik must have upset somebody high up the moco food chain :x Across the pond American sports bike are closing down. I've had parts sent over from them. They're quite a big player on that side of the water. Will this affect twinmotorcycles ?. The source of parts is getting smaller far quicker than was promised.
