By the way Bob, he sold the F800GS. Also I don't like to spend money.

You need one that leaks oil to kill that grass in the driveway.

John, that is a really sweet looking bike!

All these bikes seem to be spin offs from the Ducati Monster, which is fine.

Bob, like a lot of things BMW does, the ruined it by producing too many in that paint scheme... And, for whatever reason, that one didn't suit me. I want my old one back... I bet that woman has wrecked it by now though.

Yeah, maybe a nice old Windjammer which would look retro.

I was thinking he might go with a Dunstall or a Hannigan.

More like this.

Ugly is not an option and we know with the artist's eye that ck has, he recognizes the difference.

Yes I seem to remember them but at over $35k out of my range. the other has a newer 4 valve OHC motor. I was thinking more like a real poser for about $15k and that would still be out of my range for now.

I want to put two things on it. The seat hump and a fairing. Those type parts cost double what they cost for the S bikes though, for whatever reason.

I'm going to put a little fairing on the Harley too. I want to match the bikes up. To a certain extent.

10-4. I don't think it's a R9T. But might be. Looks like it has a tells lever.
