    Met a V Max today

    Encountered a Vmax today. No one in front of us. They have nice looking tail lights.

      I wouldn't say "bad" as I knew beforehand that I didn't stand a chance.
      Yamaha. There are rumors that 2006 will be the last year for "Mr Max".

            I'm getting a second XS1100 in about two weeks. If I can make my goal, 150 hp at the rear wheel, I may have a chance!!
