How It All Started and Who Are We

There seems to be some confusion about “who is Top Gun?” “Who is MMP?” and “Who
do I contact for questions or products?” I’ll try to confuse you some more; actually it’s
simple.

In late 2002 Elden Carl met a KLR650 rider Mark B. who became interested in all the
KLR knowledge that Elden possessed. Mark was a wiz with computers and offered to set
up a web site and post articles from Elden about the KLR650. This was an easy task for
Elden as he had written articles for what is now “Dual Sport News” back in the 1990s.

The web site not only contained articles but started including “how to” procedures and
descriptions of the many custom parts that Elden developed for his own bike. It didn’t
take long before some of the site readers were inquiring about how they could get the
same improvements that Elden was writing about. This sparked the idea of starting a
KLR650 products business through the web site which became multisurfacemotorcycling.
com.

Several years later, Todd Vosper (Marine Pilot) came along and joined our group. The
original web site, multisurfacemotorcycling.com had grown a lot and webmaster Mark was
getting overwhelmed with keeping up with the site and working a full time job so we made
a change.
