Nice Monster, HardDrive. I would keep the closed cover - it's been known to rain occasionally around here.

Mike, that Paul Smart has to be one of the all-time coolest bikes ever made. Wow...

+1 on 888 SPO being the best looking machine ever.

1995 Monster - New Hampshire Int'l Speedway (circa 2000)


Same machine being put back together after having the frame and wheels powder coated (circa 2003)


Cylinder head off for broken stud repair (present day, just over 30k miles)

Yep...we were roomates once upon a time back in Vermont. My Monster could be considered the very beginning of Leslie's association with the marque. Anyway, he helped me out with the assembly. Pic was taken in his garage when he lived in Yardley PA. You live in the northeast? Nice 888 by the way.

Late to post...but I've got good reason for a low post count of late.

This was one of mine. Long gone now. It was a '65 Sebring, a little 350 Single with a springer head. It ran really well and was a blast to ride but I still got my butt kicked by the stock Honda 350 twins that also raced in my class, 350 Sportsman. Ah, well....

Wow, blast from the past. Thank you for reminding me that I once owned a Ducati with flames on it.

I am so glad I sold my bike. Probably be dead by now if I hadn't.
