It appears he just gave his blessing on Facebook...

Would have thought this was some bullshit up until a few minutes ago. Although, something is a little shady here new company same name?

I was told by one of the Big Dog dealers earlier this year that they would start back up after the election with a K9 250 and the Mastiff. "Someone" from the old regime had purchased the bike selling rights and Coleman would still own and support the parts biz. Looking like this might be the case.

Well so far "Smoke and Mirrors"....

And as far as support for old Dogs, NADA except BDMPP which has proven less than Performance!

Big dog was American. This new company is European. This is not the real big dog. How can they name the company kansas motorcycles when they are from europe?? Sounds like a Sham. Will they be available on the American market? At 25,000 euros....converted into dollars, and import charges.....Not likely.

what it sounds like to me is it was assembled in kansas, is being tested in EU to become world compliant and manufactured in US, for the most part. probably not as many parts made in US as before, making the '96-'11 BDM more desirable. JMHO, no facts to back it up.
