However we have the unpleasant responsibility of saying that this patent is not in fact owned by Erik Buell and Erik Buell Racing, as the filing date and patent assignee information were clearly over-looked by early reports on Buell's patent. While the patent was published on October 28, 2010, its was filed by Buell last year (April 24, 2010), well before Harley-Davidson closed the company, and while Erik Buell still worked as a Harley-Davidson employee.]]></description> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.asphaltandrubber.com/news/buell-swingarm-exhaust-patent/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>20</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>Erik Buell Explains Erik Buell Racing</title><link>http://www.asphaltandrubber.com/news/erik-buell-explains-erik-buell-racing/</link> <comments>http://www.asphaltandrubber.com/news/erik-buell-explains-erik-buell-racing/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Mon, 23 Nov 2009 22:00:52 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>Jenny Gun</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[News]]></category> <category><![CDATA[1125RR]]></category> <category><![CDATA[AMA racing]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Buell]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Buell 1125R]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Buell 1125RR]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Buell Motorcycles]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Erik Buell]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Erik Buell Racing]]></category><guid isPermaLink="false">http://www.asphaltandrubber.com/?p=6671</guid> <description><![CDATA[www.youtube.com/watch?v=z3nC6Ax6ucM After Buell Motorcycles got the axe by Harley-Davidson, it seemed like Erik Buell&#8217;s dreams had come to a crashing halt.

Basic economics dictates that any time a price is raised or lowered it has repercussions to the product's resale value, and in the case of Buell's sudden price drop and dumping of basically new bikes into the market, the consequences for current Buell owners seem dreary. Or are they?In order to find an answer to that question, we asked Joshua Minix, former government think-tank Economist, and current John M. Olin Fellow in Law and Economics at Harvard Law School, to wade through the implications of Buell's closure, and how it affects the used Buell motorcycle market.]]></description> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.asphaltandrubber.com/oped/economics-buell-used-motorcycle-market/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>19</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>Buell Motorcycles To Go Out of Business</title><link>http://www.asphaltandrubber.com/news/buell-motorcycles-to-go-out-of-business/</link> <comments>http://www.asphaltandrubber.com/news/buell-motorcycles-to-go-out-of-business/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Thu, 15 Oct 2009 18:24:26 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>Jenny Gun</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[News]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Popular]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Buell]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Buell Motorcycles]]></category> <category><![CDATA[close]]></category> <category><![CDATA[discontinue]]></category> <category><![CDATA[economy]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Erik Buell]]></category> <category><![CDATA[financial]]></category> <category><![CDATA[financials]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Harley]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Harley-Davidson]]></category> <category><![CDATA[out of business]]></category> <category><![CDATA[quit]]></category> <category><![CDATA[video]]></category><guid isPermaLink="false">http://www.asphaltandrubber.com/?p=5609</guid> <description><![CDATA[After releasing grim third-quarter financials today, Harley-Davidson has also announced that it is discontinuing Buell Motorcycles. In a somber video (posted after the jump), Erik Buell confirms the news, and praises the Buell team for taking on the industry giants with "this little American sportbike company." Buell will continue to sell its motorcycle stock, and Harley-Davidson will continue to honor any warranties and part needs for Buell motorcycles.]]></description> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.asphaltandrubber.com/news/buell-motorcycles-to-go-out-of-business/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>22</slash:comments> </item> </channel> </rss>
