Default Jim Cook's bikes stolen

Jim Cook has his 2006 Gas Gas DE300, and a 2002 Gas Gas Pampera 280 taken from his trailer in Smackover, Arkansas Saturday night.
Please keep your eyes open if you see these bikes.
If you don't know Jim was a GasGas dealer and was the previous host for this forum and a great help to all us old Gasser's out there.
Please spread the word.
Thanks
Bob M. in MN

Boy, I'm sorry to hear that.

I'd have to agree - Jim is a great guy and a great help. I can't believe how he takes time to respond to people's questions and set them on the right track.

Lowest life forms next to child molesters.

That really sucks, especially to a nice guy like Jim. That Pampera should be easy to spot if it goes public, my wife has the same bike and there are very few around in the USA.

Damn, Sorry to hear about Jim's & Deb's bikes. I will keep an eye
out for them too. Pampera bikes and parts are so rare that selling
it would be like selling a stolen Picaso.
I hope he gets them back soon.
Best wishes, Jeff
