You 2 know who you are. I was just woundering if you wanted me to pickup any parts for you. Oh I know that was below the belt, but hey look who it's coming from!!
The current view from my hotel is just to good to be true. THe pic includes the Huky and BMW motorcycle dealers. Just throught the trees is the BMW and Citroen car dealers. THe BMW motorcycle dealer has a 450 motard with a dummy mounted on the roof, more pics to come!! Eat your hearts out boys!!

Scratch that Tshirt i wanted. Ill take the BMW 450 motard instead. Thanks buddy oh pal.

I was just on the phone with Hall's Cycle in Springfield, IL (Husqvarna dealer). They want to know how BIG of a suitcase do you have?! Would you mind bringing back a half container or so?

It's all about taking care of my buddies,

One 450 motard key chain and half a cantainer of good beer comming right up!!!

NO really I did go over and walk through and they had a restored 1984 R100 GS that was raced in the Paris to Dakar rally, what a BIG bike, Way COOL!! 2nd floor was all Husky!! I don't want to kill this sight with pics so just check out the blog!!-BGG

Should be fun!!

Yes it is true. I sold my Husqvarna and bought a pumkin. I'm partial to orange and black because they were the colors of my high school, GO Panthers!

On last weekend's ride I had problems with my Husky and had to be towed back to camp. MoRidin offered his 450 EXC for me to ride while he rode his 200. Within 30 minutes I knew I had found the bike for me. Have you ever tried on a pair of shoes and just knew they were the exact fit??? Well that is what happened to me on MoRidin’s 450.

I told him that I wanted to buy and he made me a VERY fair deal and I accepted. Now what to do with my Husky????? To make a long story short a “local” offered me a CASH deal that I couldn’t pass on so I sold it right there at the camp site. Everybody went away happy.

So BGG I don’t need any Husqvarna parts right now and thanks for sharing your pictures!

BTW, there are three Husky defectors that I know about. The third is BGG himself. He bought a 610 to keep up with Hayden and me on our F650s.

Shortly after Hayden and I both bought lighter bikes (LC4, XR650L). Then I lightened down to a RFS and ... the rest is history.

Wait, does this mean I started this trend? I'm a trendsetter? Nah, can't be!!!!

I'm sure Mike won't mind--he can work on BMW's, too! He has an abundance of garage free-space, free-time, and tools to work for free on eveyone's motorcycle. He loves that stuff. Bring em over!

Can I make my appointments through you?

I would not expect an oil change, valves checks and adjusted and new tires including balancing would take more then a hour, do you? When can I get that free work done?

You CAN make your appointments with Mike through me, but I charge a $39.95 convenience fee.

And it all comes with a "tail-light guarantee" ... as soon as I see a tail-light, the warranty period is complete.

As to free, space, and time ... You get what you pay for. I'll show you how to mount and balance a tire. Second time I will watch / critique. Third time you are on your own. I guess that is the teacher in me coming out.

I'm not the fastest, but I get the job done.

Safari, I had a friend show up from Washington state on his BMW PD boxer last week. "Uh, Stu, I have this leaking fork seal. You think you could fix it?" Now he also knows how to replace seals.

I bought the beer you skintyflinter.
