JOLIETTE SAYS: “9 days before Brooklyn and I shot this set with my Buell® Lightning Long XB12Ss, Harley-Davidson made the unexpected announcement that it was discontinuing Buell® Motorcycles (owned by H-D). In a somber video, Erik Buell (founder of the company) confirmed the news, and said, "I have had the great fortune to meet and get to know many Buell® riders over the years, and they are an amazing and interesting group of free thinkers." I myself shared over 4,000 glorious miles with a Buell® Blast, the company's smallest but best-selling model. It was the first bike that ever really "fit" me. It was the first bike I locked the rear wheel on, wrecked at an intersection, picked up, and rode all the way home with a broken shift lever and right wrist--without shedding a tear. It was the first bike that taught me just how tough I really am. I hope that in some small way, this set will serve as a celebration of, thank you, and farewell to, the "little American sportbike company" that gave so many of us, such an unforgettable ride.”
