    Technically those are beers..I guess.

    How about a Rogue Double Dead Guy in Black Butte Porter bottle, since we're in the PNW.

    Too bad on the radiator cap saga but about every race has a story like this. Record books just do not store this type of data ... Just the winners go in it ...

    Cant argue with your logic. I started riding dirtbike in 2004 so I dont have much history to compare to but I do study alot about older bikes. That being said, Ive had my fair share of Japanese bikes, as well as German, Italian, Austrian, etc. Japanese bikes are easier and cheaper to get parts for, thats for sure! I kind of knew going in to it with the Husky that A, its gonna be quirky, and B, its not gonna be the superstar bike out there; one that I would see on Speed channel with a number 7 on it.
    Nevertheless, I love Huskys. Not sure if I'll buy a new KTM Husky cuz I have owned and ridden other KTMs and they didnt blow me away. I think a Beta 300 is next for me.

    many

    Lots of us do. Some choose to just follow the sticker. Which for many will be great as I'm sure the new "huskys" are going to be very good bikes just like the KTM's are. We simply have one less (entire line of bikes) choice now.

    Both Jacob and Gary are friends of mine, both sponsored by us. Either way I am happy we won. I asked Gary; "Hey, is that XF steaming out of your radiator?!? We both knew that XF doesn't steam. I figured since he gives me shit all the time, it was payback.

    Just a different slant...but if HusaKTM's with Husky stickers are winning, then there's gonna be little motivation to actually create a truly different bike like some are hoping for. :excuseme:

    I'm shocked that threads still get turned into a sob fest over Swedish, Italian, Austrian Husky. (Germans always get the shaft!:lol:jk)

    Jump ship or stay with the name, but come on, Adults, let's get over it. Already. Please. Pretty Please. With Italian Husky parts sprinkled on top.
