Who's Talon Is It Anyway?

[futzin]

I’m sorry futz. I didn’t clearly read that. Didn’t comprehend you were using the 6/1. Disregard my explanation of what I did. ! I’m a moron.

Your post was helpful!

Context:

Bamm00 (who's name is Chris) is my ex-husband. He has been in the market for a side by side, for a while and was ready to buy. I helped him get a good price with Shane at Honda of Fairfield. Then the poor guy fell and broke his Knee... I mean destroyed it! Crush zone, multiple Tibial plateau fractures... it is bad. Surgery and no weight bearing for the next 10-12 weeks. Futzin stepped in to help go pick up the Talon after dropping my Mini Cooper off to be worked on yet again (I know I need to let it go, I just can't yet.) So long story short.... I am helping Chris make decisions, managing the logistics of ordering & acquiring parts. All so when he is recovered, he is ready to ride. Futz is going to help me mechanic, so this is going to get interesting. Build Thread coming soon...

**For those interested .. I will personally purchase a Talon likely next year. I feel I still need to master the P5 and confidence level in my driving skillz before leaping up to a Talon. Plus my pocketbook is getting thin with the Farm purchase and renovations.

Glad to have your business and the opportunity to put faces to names.

Come see us again when your ready for your own Talon!!

Nope. Bamm is short for Bamm Bamm (Flintstones Reference) a nickname from his work.

He was a heavy equipment mechanic and fabricator. His first day of work... he picked up a sledge hammer and knocked the side out of some sort of CAT bucket they were working on. Now everyone calls him Bamm.

So Bamm Bamm thanks ya mamm

Don't mean to be a d*** but can we get an update on how involved "Bamm" is other than write checks and put on that roof clamp? I'm all for helping someone out and I see where he blew out his knee a while back, no cast in the pic though so I assume he's somewhat recovered?
Putting all the threads together it looks like someone made the deal for him to purchase, someone hauled it for him, someone is storing it at their place for him, someone is doing the research and ordering parts for him, assume the parts are being shipped to said storage facility, someone is test riding for him and possibly opening a warranty claim, someone is going to do the wrenching for him and, with no posts under his screen name, someone probably created his account here?
This guy must have the charisma of a David Koresh.
