Good Idea, Peter! Plus I'd have Kent show me some of those great places for lunch!

=================================================

Stop by and give the guy his $2300 and I will pay you back when you get out here... ;~)

my better half is an awfully understanding woman, but if i drop another cent on a motorcycle in 2017 (even if i potentially get it back in washington dollars), that is likely to change.

The major drawback to those horizontally opposed twins is the difficulty in being able to stretch you legs out and inside of 50 miles you will be crying for highway pegs cause your knees will be screaming.

I don't know. I got on a Vespa once and fell over sideways. I held on to the joint, but made up a rule on the spot: four wheels is your minimum, Don, you've learned a valuable lesson.

Truth,
