I've had a few ShiteOldairhead boxers, ridden many more, and liked 'em all. Well, except for the monolever R80.

I don't think there are many modern so-called supertourers that are markedly better at what it does. -- BMW K1100LT Ducati 750SS Yamaha XT600E Honda CB400F chateau dot murray at idnet dot com "What you're proposing to do will involve a lot of time and hassle for no tangible benefit." |
