    Not my bike, filedata/fetch?id=1773961&d=1753725645&type=thumb BigT on his Blue bomb after a flat on the front. We were on our way to the Ice cube rally, happened just outside of Maupin and ended up taking the bike to the Dalles to Tod's brothers place. Got the tire fixed at the marina in Hood River and hit the road.

      Because Suzuki's cheap! Our 11Es never got such a snazzy paint job, either.

        The American market fairing and the Euro/Canadian market gold wheels would have been a great comb, imho.

              Thinking our 500 and 650 V-twin Honda Turbos had those wheels, but they were so rare I never saw but a couple of them... The "83" CB 1100F's, everywhere but here, got a glove box in the tail section.

                That's the definition of skimpy Mr Dgates. Might just want to go to Sturgis now. Wow! Although my wife would kill me.

                  Canada always got the cooler bikes....the US market is not closely tied to what sells in Europe like Canada is...

                          Can't say I'm surprised, though.
                          Last night I saw a vid of the smog of the 70s over parts of California.
                          It made the Peking smog of today look tame.

                            Good point...
                            Youngstown, Ohio use to be the same way. But pollution from the steel mills.

                              You guys are speaking as if pollution and greenhouse gas were still harmful. Dear Leader has said that's not true.
