The AX-8 DUAL EVO is an extremely versatile helmet designed for both on- and off-road use. The design and line inevitably recall the AX-8 model from which it is derived, but extra technical features like the visor and the specific visor mechanism, the openable chin vents, and additional openable ventilation on the top guarantee all the performance and comfort of a helmet built for road use.

What a rush! Last Sunday was one amazing day racing in Sparta, Mo., for the Missouri Harescramble Championship Series.  This race was one bad mother (hey, thats exactly what they call it). This place would have been the perfect race for a billy goat, but was pretty tough on a dirt bike. The terrain consisted of a series of challenging hills, off-camber trails, creek beds and even a few small waterfalls to climb. I’ve never had more fun at a sport in my life. The entire line of Husqvarna bikes ran smooth and flawless. I speak for the entire team when I say we couldn’t have had better equipment to ride.

Steve Akers ran strong and flawless on his Husky TXC 310 taking home a 4th place overall out of approximately 120 riders.

Damian Mahoney received an impressive 3rd place in A Intermediate on his Husky WR250.

Come check out the new Husky’s at the shop. We’ve got some amazing deals for you!

I invite everyone out to the next race in Steelville on May 6th. These events are perfect for everyone from a novice all the way to pro riders. Details are on the MHSC website below. If you have any questions on these events call Adam or me at the shop. We’ll be happy to fill you in on how they work.

Results are here.

2001 R1150GS. Rare opportunity to buy a fully-outfitted BMW R1150GS Touratech show bike. This bike was built for tradeshow and display at events by Touratech-USA.

2001 F650GS TT39. Own a piece of history with Helge Pedersen's BMW F650GS equipped with the Touratech TT39 long-range fuel kit. This bike was owned and ridden by Helge Pedersen and is the actual motorcycle he rode in the GlobeRiders Iceland Documentary.

2002 TB652 Oryx Enduro, one of 2 in the country like it. This bike was built starting with a 2002 BMW F 650 GS with only 492 miles. The bike is now 50 lbs lighter, has HID lighting and TOP shelf suspension components. Almost every part of the F650GS was removed except for the engine, radiators, injection, wiring harness, frame, and swingarm. Then the $12,000 Touratech TB 652Oryx Enduro Kit was added.

2007 G650 X-Challenge. One of the best equipped BMW G650X-Challenge motorcycles on the planet. The bike is set up with the Touratech Rally Fairing and 4.2 Gallon Touratech auxiliary tank which ads to the stock 2.4 gallon tank to give you a total fuel capacity of 6.6 and fuel range of nearly 300 miles.
