That must be why everything was being sold so cheap?

Would they notify dealers if they were?

I've heard they are moving, but also that they are not doing so well.

Unfortunately I think, just like when the 250R products dried up and many people who relied on that, you'll see many companies fold during this downturn and new ones sprout up when it comes back, just like all the new companies for 4-strokes.

Wow thats really shocking, i hope after all this ends mark brings it back, weather with the new owners or with a new company cuz laegers has been there since the beginning and it really sucks that a compnay with so much history is going under.

Thanks,
Mike

IF they do go under...it will for sure give new smaller companies a chance to start selling some of their products.

I wonder if there is a patent on the t-pin design?..there has to be.

Im sure theres plenty of parts you can find, theyll just be a little pricey and are gonnabe rebuilt or used and youll have to rebuild em. I wonder if theyre gonna have an auction sale or something to get rid of all their stock and get some money back? That would be cool cuz then their stuff will go for damn cheap!

Thanks,
Mike

Shouldnt you be training instead of sittin on your can like me??
Push ups or cardio of some sort.
I would think that Laeger would want their investment in a "factory" rider to be doing something besides misspelling.
Cripes! I have heard it all!!!!

laegers is not out of business. according to scott talor (one of the new/latest owners) the shop is down because the are in the proces of relocating. also the phone lines are down because of this.
this is a fact and it came from scott taylor himself.
