I think it might be the rego plate that I like. I will seek help.

I wonder if anyone has ever done the streetfighter thing with a Goldwing?

OMG there's a whole goddamn club of them. The Naked Gold Wing owners, was a bit concerned about clicking on that, bit it's OK, it's the Gold wings that are naked. Gotta say some of their work has merit. Got kind of a 70's Moto Guzzi feel to it. I wouldn't be too precious to ride it.

You look like you could be heading for trouble there. Remember the first rule of boy toys in the garage. Thou shalt not have more than one in a state of overhaul/restoration at one time....Lets face it a CBR/GW hybrid would be a bit scary. Has the Chancellor of the Exchequer mellowed out a bit over 2 wheeled projects or are you just on hallucinating/master....ing over the thought of the Wing? BTW that rego doesnt fit with the age of the beast unless it was reregd as a personal cos that no. is only bout 6 yrs old in the sequence.

I had some concerns about the mileage (46250) on the bike but none were realized. Used 0 oil, even cruising at 80 for most of the trip.
These are really well made bikes.

To get back on topic here .....

Sorry Steve, sometimes my brain goes at a million miles an hour, believe me it's much worse when you talk to me. At least on the computer I have to take the time to type, in real life I just tend to blurt out what everyone else is thinking but is not silly enough to say. Doesn't always make you popular, but it does make people laugh.
