We moved across the parking lot about 50 feet to our new building starting friday am.{we have alot of stuff}!!! Thanks to Lonny {oregonsage},he stopped by to get a Leo for the TE610 and stayed for hours hauling shelves and boxes of Husky parts. 2600 sq ft to about 6600 sq ft,what a change.Opened April 06/1996 its been fun ,now we have a really great clean operation,but still the "bills" atmoshpere. We still have some offices to move and the service dept this week,but that will be easy compared to the detail work of rehanging every accy and helmet ,gear bag gas can,glove,skid pan etc. Im going to try to add the pics otherwise go to www.billshusky.com and click on events or varius and they are there. The biggest deal of this we are right on the street and we dont have to push between 25 and 75 bikes in and out every morning and evening just to go home rain or shine,just hit the alarm say good night to the boys and go home{ill probably be sleepwalking around the house outside pushing a Wr150 around and round in my sleep.}billf Just realized wrong computer you will have to go to www.bills husky.com
Sounds too good. I was going to come down Sat, but got sidetracked. One of the things I used to enjoy though, was looking at the bikes in the parking lot. Seems like every time there would be something I hadn't seen for a while. Usually quite a variety.
It looks a lot better than it did when I left Friday night. It was great working with you and Bryon. Nice to get out from behind the desk and sweat a little. The new showroom looks great in your pictures. (BTW, that Leo make my 610 sound just right. The raspyness of the stock pipe is gone and it has a nice mellow purr when cruising. Excellent.)
WOW! That had to be a huge job,looks really nice.And Bryon gets a front row seat Don't let that yamabog creep out of the walls... (this used to be the Johnny Rohners Yamaha shop back in the day).pretty cool.
That is really nice Bill. Clicking on the big 'Events' button did not bring up the pictures, but the dropdown menu for both 'events' and 'various' did. Someone should hot link a before and after picture in this thread. I cannot tell if there is even a before picture on your site. I will assume if I ever drive by when you are open it would be ok to stop in.
I put some before pictures up under the Dealer Kudos section a couple weeks ago. Should get a chance on Saturday to take some after pictures which I will post up after the weekend.
I've no idea what hosting account ggpht is that those pictures are hosted on, hopefully they will stay hosted. Link to old and new shops. http://www.cafehusky.com/forums/showthread.php?p=116374#post116374
Those are hidden links to my Picasa portfolio. I have had the account for years, dont think they are going anyplace anytime soon.
Dean you and everyone should stop in and just check us out during the PNW ride.Cafe Husky should be in full swing by then at least for a cup of coffee,{THANKS }We have some really great NW MX and ISDE pics to see.Well got to get back at it,building shelves and setting up my service counter and computer yet tonight.billf
I stopped by today and it is looking great!! It was funny to see Bryon in the sunlight out of his cave!
New Store Pics I stopped in on the way to the Eddieville races last weekend and took some pictures of the new store. Showroom and Parts are shaped up pretty well. Service, Bills Office and the Riders Lounge still to come..... seems like a good name for such a lounge might be ....
