So please, CLICK HERE to take our survey

With the recent sad news of the closing of Buell Motorcycle Company, Brew City Thunderbikes, Hals Buell, and the fine members of badweatherbikers.com have decided to put on a tribute ride.

Join us on Monday October 26th, 2009 at Hals HD/Buell for the last factory ride





Details for the ride

Meet at Hals HD/Buell at 10:00AM for a meet and greet.
We'll take on of the two routes listed below, and meet at the Buell factory at about 130PM

This event isn't a somber farewell, but a celebration of 26+ years of innovations, and bucking of the norm. Lets make this otherwise sad turn of events into a real celebration for those fine men and women who created the best bikes in the world.

I had some spare sign board laying around, and some machine time. So I offered to make a sign to hang in Hals new Buell area. Which, if you haven't been there recently, they've made some pretty cool changes. No longer will Buells keep getting bumped around the showroom with the HDs. We've got our own area boys and girls!

Hal's V.I.P. Welcome at Great Lakes Drag Way during Buell Bike Night
Hal's and Brew City Thunder Bikes will host a ride to and a V.I.P. Welcome at Great Lakes Drag Way. Come into Hal's and register for $5.00. All those who register and ride with us from Hal's will get into the Drag Way for free (that's a savings of $12.00). The registration will cover a V.I.P. tent at the track, food (yes, there will be Brats) and entertainment. If you have ever wanted to try drag racing this will be your chance. Union Grove will have "Fun Runs" for $25 and they are also working on some Buell Bracket races. If you can't make it to Hal's but want to see the races that night, anyone coming to the track on a Buell will be given a reduced entrance fee. The ride will leave Hal's at around 4:00 p.m. but may be earlier depending on the route and the number of riders we have. Stay tuned for further details about the dates of registration. If you are from out of the area, Hal's will be taking registration by phone. A special thanks to Nancy Birkenstock, Scotty from "Lil" Scotty's Customs and MaryLou Funk at Union Grove Drag Way for making this possible.

Friday, July 6th
Hal's will lead a ride from our parking lot to Buell Mfg. in East Troy, Wi. for Technical Seminars and Factory Tours. Tours start at 9:00a.m. and go until 2:00 p.m. We will be taking the "back-roads" to Buell so the ride will leave promptly at 8:30 a.m. We should stage for the ride starting at 7:30 a.m. but not sure yet. Further details about the events that day at Buell should be posted this week on Buell's website.

Sat. & Sun., July 7th & 8th
A.S.R.A., C.C.S and MotoST races at Road America, Elkhart Lake, WI. Special 2-day passes will be available at Buell Mfg. on Friday, July 6th. All details about Buell events at the tack should be announced this week. A number of us from Brew City Thunder Bikes will be attending the races that weekend to cheer on Dan Bilansky, 2006 A.S.R.A. Thunderbike National Champion, Shawn Higbee, Richie Morris Racing and the James Gang Racing Team. We currently do not have formal ride plans to the track but we are working on something. Stay tuned for further details.

Hal's Exclusive "Crew Member for a Day"

Hal's is pleased to announce that two lucky Buell owners will be chosen from a drawing on Saturday, July 7th, to serve as "Honorary Crew Members" for the James Gang Racing and Richie Morris Racing teams during the MotoST Endurance race on Sunday, July 8th at Road America. The winners will receive Crew Member Credentials for Sunday's race and a crew member shirt from their respective team. To enter you must be a Buell Owner and you must register at Hal's H-D/Buell between 8:00 a.m. July 5th and 12:00 noon on Saturday, July 7th. The lucky winners will be an active part of the crew but will not be going "over the wall". For further details about the drawing and the rules please visit Hal's website in the coming weeks. A special thanks to team owners Paul James and Richie Morris; Dan Bilansky and especially Mike "CoolIce" Kirkpatrick for making this event possible.

So, what do you think-enough to do? Let me know what you think.

I just received a correspondence from Buell Owner's Club administrator. We've been accepted as an official Buell club!

Yeah, it took us long enough to get the ball rolling and get this up and running. It's not 100% yet. But we're getting there.

We've got a killer new logo that Brian and I designed last weekend. I just need to put some finishing touches on it.

The web site should also be MUCH faster now that it's on a computer that is roughly 5x faster than the one running brewcitybrag.org


Expect many more features and changes to come shortly.
