I guess we can all agree it's a very "social" bike...I went on a two-week tour of Europe last summer, alone, and was afraid I was going to spend a lot of time talking to myself...but as it turned out I almost had to fight people off everytime I stopped! I doubt that would have happened on a R1. The only problem is finding an equally outstanding bike when it's time to replace it...Mission Impossible? I truly fear for that moment. -Fredrik
LOL, that's the funniest sh*t I've read in a while!! Well, it appears that there won't be a 97/98 GTS in my possession anytime soon, yikes. The cool part is that it's cheap enough to own and odd enough that EVERYONE notices you riding it. Same as I get with my '67 Chrysler, instead of spending $40K and more on those penis extensions (Ford Excursion etc) my car is less than a tenth of that and gets more looks, same milage, cheaper parts, insurance, registration and won't break. :) Oh we got all that stuff as well...but they renamed it "Goldwing". It cornered like an aircraft carrier so noone here cared much about it. -Fredrik Fredrik, So they took off the ABS to reduce the price! What about the heated seat and grips, HID lighting, automatically adjustable screen, built in pneumatic lift, and beer cooler? I'll bet those cheap bastards didn't give you any of the good stuff we got on the faster 94"s sold in the US. hawke
