Thanks for the link.

I would never turn down a husky! But all my bikes and parts are KTM so it would never make sense to change. Thats them! I ride "I mean chase" with Nedero on the far left and Hilslammer second from the right. Both incredible riders.

Found something odd about that helicopter crash:

http://www.signonsandiego.com/news/m...n15morgue.html

Also discovered (probably old news to most) that ol' Alan Pflueger has been throwing gobs of money into a new truck that debuted this year. Supposedly the first truck to successfully use independent suspension.

i saw pics of this truck today, one of my coworkers went to baja this year and stopped by pflueger's shop on the way. the thing looks goofy, but its fawkin cool! its mid engine, the exhaust comes out the side right behind the drivers window. i guess theyre having trouble keeping CVs in the rear end. and theyre destroyed the titanium market with it, most of the suspension is titanium, including the coil springs.

just thought i'd share.
