Bartels’ HD and Antelope Valley HD is fielding a Buell 1125R in the Daytona 200 The Bartels’ Buell ran several Sportbike and Superbike races during the 2009 AMA season, and Shawn Higbee will ride the bike again in this year’s Daytona 200. Higbee enthusiastically said, “I’m ecstatic about the support from Erik Buell Racing and the James Gang / Hoban Brothers team. Also, Antelope Valley HD has stepped up to collaborate with Bartels’ HD to field the Buell at Daytona.” The James Gang Racing pit crew will be handling the pit stops for both Paul James and Higbee. The exceptional pit work by the JGR team was a big part of Higbee’s 5th place finish in last year’s Daytona 200. Higbee comments, “I have a lot of confidence with Mike Kirkpatrick and John Dahmer leading the pit crew. I couldn’t ask for a better bunch of guys. I’d like to also thank the Buell enthusiasts from BadWeatherBikers.com for their continued support of Buell privateers like myself.” Although there will be no contingency to race the Buell, Higbee is excited to race the 1125R at Daytona. Higbee said, “After many years of developing, testing and racing the Buell, I just had to race the 1125R one more time in the 200. I know some people will call me crazy for entering the [nearly stock] Buell, but I know the bike intimately and it is a pleasure to ride on the world-famous Daytona banking.” Bartels HD and Antelope Valley HD are participating in the Harley-Davidson competitive bike exchange promotion.
