Thumbs up R-75!!

I agree with JADZ928!! the early bikes are sweet to the MAX!! All you need is the sidecar with the MG-42 mounted on it so A$$ hole drivers don't pull out right in front of you at 10MPH!!!

Default New 928 Stablemate

Triumph Sprint ST ABS
A totally different bike in every way than the ZG1000 Concours that it replaced.
Initially I was all over the red ST, then I thought about how red bikes & cars are tickets standing still.
The black Darth Vader looking bike grew on me, plus my GT can relate

Luggage easily comes off and the look isn't bad w/out:

(not my bike)
Although some parts are from various countries, the bike's made in the UK.

-about 20 Kawi motocross bikes (Real motocross two-stoke screamers)
- afew crotch rockets
-Now- 2007 YZ250F four stroke fat old man motocross bike (Nice, but just not the same)

I thought you rode it all the way to San Francisco. Should have looked me up. Then saw the "not my bike" quote.

Stan,
That's a beautiful bike!

I used to ride, but our drivers here are horrible. If you're riding in a way they don't affect you, then the police are after you. So I gave it up myself.
