My brother is shopping around for a bigger, better bike. He'll most
likely be on one of mine, but that's another story. He searches
craigslist and comes upon a GasGas 200 for a great price. He calls
the guy and during the beginning of the conversation, he's already
talked him down $200. Then the seller goes on to say that he's never
raced it. But, he then says he rode in a few harescrambles and really
got to test the powerband.
Bro: I thought you didn't race it
Seller: well, yeah. Maybe a few times. But, a harescamble, not a
motocross.
Bro: What about the maintenance.
Seller: Brakes, tires, oil changes, regular stuff, every 3,000 miles.
Bro: um... OK.
Seller: You need to really come ride it. Once the powerband kicks
on, it's like a supercharger.
Bro: Which one is it? Do you know which color powerband you have in
there?
Seller: I don't know. I never changed that.
Bro: Do you have any extras?
Seller: No, no extras. But there's a GasGas dealer close who sells
them.
Needless to say, he didn't go look at it. So, since I have three of
them and obviously can't ride all of them... not at one time
anyway... I'm bringing another GasGas rider into the club. He's
already ridden the 300 a couple weekends ago and came back with a huge
grin.
I love being an enabler. He'll step up to the 300 and his 13 year old
daughter is moving up to his "old" bike, CRF230 (I think, maybe the
250. Electric start plush machine).
We also work at the same place now, same shift, same days off. I've
got a riding buddy again. I mean, not that Aura isn't. A faster,
tight woods kinda stuff riding buddy.

I'm thinking I got to call the authorities about this effing and
persistent collection of pushers. The new drug commonly in the vernacular
called Gas Gas has replaced Yamahoppy and HelpmerHonda as the addicted's
new choice.
Where are the heart warming tales of bringing the life-saving pooch back
from the perils of Iraq? Or even repatriating a clapped out Moped?
We get pushers.

Hey, that sig line-

Pretty sure it's from a Tom Clancy novel...
