Video: Erik Buell leaves Harley, looks happy again!

Erik Buell, the charismatic founder of Buell Motorcycles, has left Harley-Davidson to start his own race shop that will supply Buell racers.

Buell Motorcycles was closed by Harley a month ago as part of a plan to cut costs and Erik was told to work for Harley. At the time of the closure he made an emotional video in which he appeared close to tears.

He’s made a video this time too. It’s worth watching – at times he appears close to laughter.

See the new happy video here:
