We might as well have a catch-all thread for bikes, so here it is.
The lead up with the Johnny Campbell and Honda has been covered here-http://www.planetrobby.com/group/planetbikerbar/forum/topics/honda-...
Now we can post all Dakar info in this thread, with no holds barred [or maybe no stone un roosted would be a better term].
Here are the hype video's from the main players. It seems to me the marketing guy's have really stepped up their game to give us some really bitchin hype.

From the KTM-

************my bad ********** 2
as #169 CHIVITE IGNACIO's Bultaco 370 is a 2 stroke

Cool! A Bultaco! It has to be 30 years old! We have to follow these mad men! a great story line.

Yep, it's a '77, he has a FB page -http://www.facebook.com/BultacoDakar?fref=ts
While we are on the subject of Bultacos, I got my pop's Alpina running good enough for him to race this past weekend. The old guy toughed it out and made 2 laps to win his class after everyone else broke. Real proud of him to get back into it after over 40 years of owning other racers bikes.

Bitchin. Love this!

Good stuff... wish I was there

Congrats. That's great stuff.

Very cool. Wonder where he scares up his spares?

Hugh's in New York bought out every dealer he could find on the face of the earth, then bought the trademark from Senor Bulto.
