    Dirt Rider's April issue has a nice write up on Scott Summers' Top 15 Husky setup tips. It's a good write up and he thanks George of Uptite, Jay of Halls and Gerald of Upstate for there assistance and knowledge. Nice to see so much press after none for so long. He talks about how bullet proof the bikes have been throughout the season. A lot of the mods are known by most already but I did see a couple I hadn't heard of..
    Check it out!!!:thumbsup:

    I'm so glad that KTM Rider...er I mean Dirt Rider finally had some nice things to say about Husqvarnas. They never include them in shoot outs and tests. I have read in the past that they claim that they just can't get the machines from the manufacturer.:excuseme:

    I think Dirt Rider photoshops all the photos. Look at the pics in the 250 2st vs 250 4st KTM article....it has a woods background with the bike/rider inserted on top. Very lame.

    I had to check out that article again. I don't see what you are talking about. I am not sure if they meant to do this but the cover photo of that article has a bike with quad forks with a 140 front tire. Looks funny...is that what you were talking about?

    It is the Wiseco KTM article. Look closely at the pics in the woods with the leaves on the ground. It is as if the bikes are floating (probably want it to appear like they are airborne off a log or something). Look at the wheelie pics near the tree. Look close ;)

    Excellent! I didn't know you rode a GG300! And with a trials tire, too...that's cheating, you know:D We've got a 250, 280 and a 300 in our garage. Pretty sweet bikes:thumbsup:

    I've never appeared on the cover of a magazine (yet) but I took a photo that ended up on the cover of the Blue Ribbon Coalition's magazine. I didn't get credited for it, though...

    DR is doing a write up on the TC-250 next month. Also, look for someone from this forum in the "letter rip" section.
