I really never enjoyed Hemingway much. I did enjoy visiting his haunts in Madrid, though. Some cool bars.

They don't seem much cooler than the first versions, but then, my knees and wrists are past the guy who's past the pure sportsbike. Some nice paint schemes, though!

I think the CBx is much more visually and viscerally appealing than the GS, but the GS1100E was pretty.
