          Nice bike and parts are amazing! I see you sold your sole and are comfortable with your fate. I'll accept that black and blue seat as an attempt to gain your dignity back.

                  Nice score!

                  What are your feelings on that trunk on the white one? there is a guy on ebay selling them reasonably priced that I am looking at, seems to have mixed reviews though. Could you get 2 full face helmets in there ya think?

                          Wow!

                          Glad I didn't run across those!

                          No one could resst those bikes, unless threatened with divorce court. That's the place where you give up all your toys, so you can make the monthly payments to the X.

                          Looks like they'll both look great when finished.
