Court Canfield stumbled onto Buell in the late 1980s when you could hold an owners convention in a phone booth. After buying his first Buell, a 1990 RS-1200, Canfield has ridden Buells in 44 states and has become the "acknowledged unofficial Buell storyteller." He tends to be drawn easily into challenges like circling the United States on a Buell or riding a Buell halfway across the country and into the Guggenheim Museum for "The Art of The Motorcycle" exhibit. He maintains close contact with Buell owners around the globe.
Dave Gess has been involved with Buell Motorcycles since buying a used car from Erik Buell in 1983. When Buell Motorcycles got started it was quickly obvious that letting Gess turn a wrench was a mistake but he helped the project along by generating publicity and promotional materials. A photographer by profession Gess not only took publicity pictures but also documented the design and building of all the early Buells. These early photographs and stories from the first 15 years of Buell provide an insider's view of the company.
