I wish the site would elaborate more on why, it was an hour long show.

My first bike was #3!! Wow I knew I liked the beast but I didnt think that she was one of the top 3 in the world??

Too bad I sold her. Her top speed was somewhere around 70mph (and that was gunning it in 5th down hill with the wind to my back). I miss the ol girl.

I saw that as a video clip on the net...a smaller version.....it was a riot! Hell it not only started...but if the wheel wasn't bent it would rode away. what about draining the oil...and putting cooking oil in it? That was fun to watch!
