vendor friday rules ?

Post by Andrew Tuning » Fri Mar 10, 2006 12:21 pm

I should sleep on my "venting" messages before I send them. Especially at 12:00 am. Like you, John, I am home with ill child AND sicker than a dog myself. Add to that 2 hours of sleep since 6 am YESTERDAY morning, I get a little snippy. I apologize that I took Gavin's post personally, but I did. BUT! If someone asks where I feel they may best find a part or product, I will offer my opinion just the same as everyone else. -Andy (sicker than a dog feeling like he was thrown under a bus and walked on by the band) BIFBR Andyt59@... http://myweb.cableone.net/tbernard -----Original Message----- Message: 3 Date: Fri, 10 Mar 2006 17:35:04 -0000 From: "scarysharkface" Subject: Re: Vendor Friday rules ? I take full credit for initiating another string of messages about satisfaction with Happy Trails products. I felt I had something relevant to add to the singularity (my opinion) and posted it post haste. My perception was that vendors were to make an effort to not blatantly advertise on days other than Fridays, and that their ads needed an NKLR Vendor Friday in the subject. My post was in reference to HT products as purchased for and installed on my KLR and other non-HT products a local KLR owner had in his grimy mitts. If people aren't going to post messages such as mine, or Andy's helpful/insightful/inciteful posts referencing the family business on any days but Fridays (I'm now an HT shill of sorts too, I guess), then I will probably only end up filtering everything but Friday posts because this is where I go to learn about the gear. If somebody makes a set of racks/widgets/whatever that is as good as, nearly as good as or better than the Happy Trails stuff, I want to know about it. For now, though, it looks like the HT stuff is the best value for the KLR, which happens to be the best value in motorcycles, imho. Sorry for the rant. I'm home ill with an ill child and not in a very good mood...

vendor friday rules ?

Post by J T » Fri Mar 10, 2006 12:46 pm

I seem to recall a recent string of messages about the many salutary features of Oxtar Infinity boots. Which was fine by me (except when I went to buy a pair and they were all gone, that is!) If someone thinks a product or vendor is great, I'd like to know about it on Monday through Thursday, not just on Friday. I'll rely on my finely tuned b*******t meter to separate any spam from legit endorsements.

It's nice to know who's related to who when it matters. Me, I'm just related to the cee oh two in my tires - I go faster that way. Jim A17 --- In DSN_KLR650@yahoogroups.com, Tengai Mark Van Horn wrote:

Hi Andy, Since I started this, I would like you to know that I wish no ill will against you personally or Happy Trails. That it why I tried to do it as a non personal message, I think Mark Van Horn best expressed my point of view, you were very clear about your familial connections and to me as it progressed there lies the rub. Because your wife works for the business (msg # 149104) there is more of a vendor angle to it (to my mind). Your opinion on all matters is valued, please feel free to continue to express them, it is a free world after all and I was just expressing mine :) -- Gavin Broadford Victoria Australia KLR650A18 DL650K6 Home of the DSN-KLR650 searchable archive at:- http://dsnklr650.gavinmac.com

I just came inside from running one of my other "thumpers". It is called a snow blower and we are a long way from 73 deg here, (near Edmonton, Alberta). My neighbours appreciate it too, especially the one with a husband in Afghanistan. My HAPPY TRAILS are pretty well cleared of snow now. DC Mike Frey wrote:

BTW - this has nothing to do with Andy, or Happy Trails. Disclosure - I'm a supplier to Happy Trails. I think some listers might be surprised by some of the reality of vendor tactics and antics. The vast majority of vendors treat the list with respect, and act within "the rules". On the other hand.....If you ever receive (or have received) an email off list, offering superlatives about a certain company - well, here's hoping your bulls*%t meter is calibrated. Sometimes they have a made up name, sometimes no name as a signature. To me, if the name isn't there, true, available, etc - it's bulls*&t! Happy Friday! all the best, Mike (not afraid to sign my name) Eagle Mfg & Eng San Diego, Ca

jt sprockets and lowering links for sale

Post by Chris Jennings » Fri Mar 10, 2006 7:30 pm

I have JT part numbers JTF 516.15 and JTF 516.14 that I got by mistake. They fit 87-89 KLR's These are brand new and never used, I tried to put them on but since I have a 93 they would not bolt on. $30.00 for the pair shipped or $17.00 each shipped to the U.S. I also still have some 2" Happy Trails lowering links $60.00 shipped.
