T.M. Roe Member Registered: 02/11/01 Posts: 878 Loc: Rural, WI USA	Things have picked up for one of our local KTM dealers. I called to see if he still had a 1290 GT on the floor (he just sold one but has one more in the warehouse). He said he has sold 12 bikes this week with more sales to come (Supercross in town this weekend). Good to hear. I remember picking up my RT and riding home March 4, 2000. _________________________ T.M.Roe "Just an ordinary average guy"

I'm guessing with the warm-up this weekend dealers will see an uptick in business. We're supposed to be in the upper 50's Saturday and Sunday.

Wherever people are, and what ever they ride, this time of year, hope springs eternal and sales start to swing upward, We scoured the region for good pre-owned bikes to have them in stock for theis time of year. Would sell the new ones, but many are looking for a good deal and upgrade. Often they would ask, "what's the best oil for my new bike and we would say..." "read your manual, or this update from BMM wrt fluids/intervals and follow the mileage/time maintnenance schedules." "Yes, but what's the best oil?" _________________________ If my mind wanders, should I follow it? Tim Conch Town Krewe 2003 K 1200 GT 1996 R 100 RSL 1980 R 100 RT 1972 R 75 1968 R 50 All now gone...
