Here we are ready to embrace another year of the Indianapolis Dealer Expo and these final 48 hours are killing us. Besides all of the good times we will enjoy with dealers, distributors, and international customers that we rarely get to see, we actually have some stuff that we have been working on for over a year and we finally get to roll it out. The highly anticipated Halo Sprockets, Atlas Bars, Pistol Grips, and factory two tone handlebars will be at the show for the collective motorcycle industry to critique and let us know their thoughts. Universal has no doubts that these products will be widely accepted by our colleagues and spread like wild fire once they hit the marketplace.   Smitty plans on meeting up with his major domestic dealers and mail order accounts and taking them out for a few wild nights of whiskey, strippers, steaks, and possibly streaking. Not sure what he plans to accomplish with the streaking, but Mike D. has vowed to capture the moment on video if it happens. Stay tuned on YouTube.com for further info.  Mike D. will be doing much of the same, but with our International clients and domestic distributors. Hopefully he will get some sleep and wash the blood and vomit of himself before the early 10:00 appointments he has set for himself. We’ll give that a 50/50 shot.  Erik and Jackle will be holding the fort in Temecula on lock down while the sales guys “entertain” customers at the trade show. However, our hours will be shortened to 9:00-4:00 PST February 16, 19, and 20 while Smitty and Mike D. are out of town.  We have attached a picture of our new Atlas Handlebar in Factory Gold for your viewing pleasure. Cheer’s to us for keeping it real!  Mike D. and The Universal Posse
