"need a Bay Area Hubber's help".

I need some gaskets and found them online on ktmtwins but they do not ship abroad : ((
they are located in San Francisco. I wonder if anyone could pick them up and send them to me or knows another source. Do not want to lose even more time...
Thanks a lot!

Bump.

Help a brother out, please.

I'm trying to help, but I'm 400 miles south of San Francisco. They will ship them to me and I can forward them to Norschweger but that will greatly increase the delay in getting the much needed parts to him in El Salvador.

The man is an ace.

Anyone?

Thanks! Good idea. Now I did, might be too late as I told them to ship it to a friend..not wanting to lose even more time (and in the end maybe the parts are not available any more)

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
