only thing I don't like about BMW's is the "off throttle" squat when closing the throttle into corners, something to get used to, you have to acelerate into corners to keep the heads off the floor,,Guzzi's don't have the same problem, I do like em though,,

I like it coz its a bit different,had a go on one about 4 years ago and liked it a lot, really surprised me, I think they look nice to in a funky way... prices seem to have just bottomed out second hand in the UK so time to treat myself to another toy..... does take me a while to make up my mind

If he wants to buy a chrome baby to look at it that is fine, but to justify it as an "investment" does not fly with me. Got me thinking, if you had $20K US to buy an investment ordainment, what would you get? I would like to show him that there are real investments out there. "
Ok, I''ll bite. I keep passing this one up, trying to wag more and bark less, but bored now so here are my thoughts on this topic.

Tell you friend to buy some investments in his own hobbies, not someone else's.
I want to see the bikes from days past, owned by real bike nuts like my self, who have a REAL passion for what they own.
The less bikes bought and stuffed away from the viewing public to make a buck the better.
So not sorry to offend anyone.![]()
Gosh, I feel so much better now......![]()
