Hope it works out.

I'm sure there are differences between this-n-that type..but as long as he's sending the BIG straps (USD)..you should be able to make'em work.

Yep. Chuck Steahly is a nice guy. One of those sleeper types??? TALL, slim, laid back in appearance, soft-spoken. Looks more like a college professor than a biker (whatever that means :wink: ).

...don't bother trying to keep up with him, though! Well...I have ridden with him and had the sense to NOT try. Not gonna happen.

His son is a AA contender. Rides ISDEs in far off foreign places, too.

That's cool, I like to support folks that are in it for more than just a buck. I don't know who I talked to, but he sounded like an older guy, soft spoken.

Speaking of fast kids, A guy I work with has a 16 year old son that races MX on a KX250F. He ran a hare scramble a while back and ended up passing a lot of the pros. So me and his dad are gonna trail ride, but I gotta take dad's bike in my truck cuz theirs is in the shop. The kid shows up with his little pit bike, a KLX 110. This thing is bone stock, and I figure he'll just putt around the truck. Uh, no. We put 52 miles on and it was all I could do to keep up with that kid unless the trail opened up. I don't know how that bike held together, the suspension had to be bottoming twice a second. I was wiped the next day, and he played in a hockey tournement. :blink:

Oh, how I remember youth. I put in 50 miles everyother day and not even be winded. I met guys up in the mountains one day, they rode A & AA. Well, I followed behind them and I mean followed close. These guys were flying. When they stopped they said, hey you ride fast, everyone else tells us to slow dow. I said, naw no problem, while I was thinkg these guys are out of their F#$KING MINDS. Now these days, I'll wait till it comes out on video :grin:
