Hi guys,
Sad about our forum loss, but grateful for this new site, the other site, and FBook. Still have the same two here in Charlotte!

Nice having you bmart!
What is the purpose of that 'pimple' on their noses?
So, you couldn't decide on the color and you bought them both?

Funny!
The black rectangle is the GoPro mount. East enough to reach/use, but perspective is lower than I'd like. Sad that we have to run cameras everywhere these days.
The red one is my second of those. Went from a '99 to '98 to buy miles back. then the yellow one turned up. I hate red and planned to move the bodywork and keep just one, but the newer one is more complex and has worse suspension...so we'll see. I've been deciding for nearly five years. lol

I can appreciate that you take your time in making a well-thought-out choice.
How much miles was actually on the bike? I have around 110000 km (68350 miles), which I consider just have finished the break-in period.
(will the red nose and tail fairing be for sale?)

Nothing will be for sale but one whole bike if the day ever comes.
