    Nice bike, Gabor, and congratulations on having the Bike of the Month! Makes me sorry I sold mine. I especially like the black exhaust. BTW, where was the pic taken, SoCal?

          Thank you guys,i really appriciate it.Makes me so proud,that my little Suzi won such a prestigious title!Growing up in Hungary in the 80's

          this bikes were the epitome of motorcycling,and i could just dream of owning one of them.Luckily i was able to aquire this beautyful

          machine for very little

          money,and it is my pride and joy ever since.I take no credit for it to look like this,i just try to keep it in shape

          BTW i love this forum,since i discovered it,i had a lot of fun reading the threads and getting great advices on a lot of issues.I would love to

          meet some of the members,but that is proving to be challenging.

          No,this pic. was taken in Malibu,Ca,looking towards Pac.Palisades-Santa Monica.I live in So. Orange County now.

          Cheers

              No,Zuma beach would be in the opposite direction about 10 mi. away....What you see is probably Palisades Beach.This spot is not far from Pepperdine Univ.

                I lived in Hermosa Beach back in the 80's. The background in the picture reminded me of a place I'd take a breather at after riding up Stunt Rd, off Topanga. I'd usually head over that way when visiting the Rock Store on Mullholland Drive. The view from the opposite side of the road was just as impressive but of the valley and mtns. Ah, what memories!
                Given a choice though, I prefer the roads where I am now, North East TN.
