Tbh...... I have decided to tinker with the bikes I have.
The panels for the futura go in for painting tomorrow.
And I have plans for the storm trooper.
And I have two restoration projects to do.
But yes I have looked at the buell. :smt002

He's been threatening to buy one for a while. Looking at the camera angles on that video the Benelli must come with a fairing Nooj.

Should be with me late next week.

Been looking out for the rare RS model for a while now.

Looking forward to the spring, me being a fair weather biker and all that :smt002

With this one he just needs to stand behind the bike and get a blow

.............................. from the two fans. :smt003

Then he's off for the Sunday morning ride, once its warmed up.

It looks good Jay!

Can't wait to hear how you rate it.

Sweet, I've seen a few and really fancy a Tornado Tre. Is the RS the 900 or 1130 engine?

Actually thinking about it why do you need to wait until spring, hasn't it got a radiator under the seat? :smt002
I don't care if you lick windows,
Take the special bus
Or occasionally pee on yourself.
You hang in there sunshine, you're special!
