He's down in Costa Rica with Buddy Holly and Elvis
Can we get a update from Bret Rasmussen Please
- Thread starter canuck rider
- Start date
After bringing him in to do 2 customer rides there are 2 things I know.
1. The guy can ride, whatever sled he has made his. I couldn't ride his sled, and he couldn't ride mine.
2. When you are shooting the sh@t on the hill he'll tell you exactly what he thinks. Little different in the world we live in where anything can be posted and seen by anyone.
My favorite memory of either trip was the fact we had 3 Cutler M8 rg turbos in our group of 10 and he didnt have a BD turbo to ride yet. He wasn't thrilled getting filmed on that lol.

I just spent the day with him drinking beer around the campfire with our families and the one thing I am most grateful about him is....
that he doesn't check in on this thread to call me a liar....hahaha

Bret dink a beer? Not likely.
It is possible that you have perhaps missed the idea behind that post:face-icon-small-win
You might want to check yours.
haha...so he tries to do a "free" commercial for fish and it hard to get info out of him on a product from a company he is getting "paid by".....I love it...

Get your magnifying glass out Rob, I probably should have made the print a little bigger
You know, it's just something about how people go about things... with guys like you & Dave, it's not the hard sell, BUY WHO I RIDE FOR NOW, kind of deal... but it's more effective imo. Show folks the good time that can be had, show people it lives up to the abuse, tell them why you like it, and people will buy a product. Turn into a used car salesman like everyone who rides for BD, and it drowns out the message, and makes it HUGELY obvious that they're just saying it because they're getting paid. I watch the friggin fun you & dave have, and I can't HELP but want a Beta, or an XM... how do you beat that???
I've been lucky over the years to ride for the people I wanted to, not who I HAD to or who paid more ("paid", yeah right!), and companies who took good care of everyone, not just me... so it has always been easy for me to say why I liked them, and why someone else should as well. To me it's only the companies that are poor that you have to do a hard sell like that with.

Exactly buddy.. What is the point of using a product that doesn't propose a benefit?
When it comes to sleds.. We only get so many days a year to ride so wtf would you ride something that doesn't fit you perfect?
You won't be seeing me riding another brand unless I feel way more comfortable behind the bars than I do now with an XM.
Not to mention why wouldn't you tell it how it is?
My sled rips. It is bone stock aside from RSI bars and Fox suspension. There I said it! haha
I am pumped that you are so stoked to ride!! Can't wait to see more pics of you and that XM :face-icon-small-hap
You will have to come up to Jax and hang for a few days! We gotz some fuuuuun stuff!:tea:
