Caution! You're about to enter the no-spin zone. You could be heading for a case of TimMorrow-itis! And look what it did to Thumper as well.

That's a rather nicely modified example of a not very good motorcycle. Depends on price, I suppose. CAN2300 = GBP1500, more or less. Not out of court. -- BMW K1100LT Ducati 750SS Honda CB400F Triumph Street Triple Suzuki TS250ER GN250 Damn, back to six bikes!
