    glad your settled in now, for starters head out towards Dillingham to the end of the pavement you can get the feel for your bike out there then when your up to it head for the Kahuku riding area by Sunset I tried this on my KLR awhile back and about killed myself in there tight and twisty.

    KevinMTB may get in contact with you he rides a Husky 610.

    It has actually been in effect long before that (may have been overlooked for a while) as it was needed when I was there is about 20 years ago and was needed at my previous posting when I got my first road bike in 85.

    I figured that if the Bald Kirk had the ID he would most likely have the bike registered on base and as such would have the stickers.

    Can you still go downtown and get an access pass for the Peacock Flats area which is accessed via the satalite station at the northern tip of the west shore? If so there were some nice trails up there, but I would not go alone.

    No I don't know the guy but I did a search in Yahoo for Waipahu Saiga Shotgun and there is a company in Waipahu that manufactures parts for Saiga shotguns.

    Good Luck!

    just rented a bike for next Wednesday at Big Island Motorcycle. They currently have a Yami Fz 600 and a Honda Shadow 600. Said he is getting a few others soon... SV650, probably some Harley's due to demand.

    Located in Waikola (kings place mall) north of Kona, well before Hapuna beach.
