Looks sharp Man!

As a matter of fact, I picked up a $500 Suzuki. Just not the same. I suppose it will have to do.

Congrats on the Thrux Neuro! Kingbear, you are on both counts.

Let's see some pics! Also elaborate on #4 for us please. Is it comfort? Why do you prefer the Thruxton?

Hey everybody. Still no Thruxton. Everything is on hold as I trudge my way through college. Still dreaming. Still want a Thruxton in the worst way. The other day the wife informed me she sure wished we had a fast bike for her to ride. I asked her what she wanted, and she said she s wants a...

Suzuki Madura

I suppose the other option is a Bonneville with rear sets.

Not sure. I don't really care for the look of the swollen tank on the efi Bonnies, So likely a carbed model. The other hang up is that I think the bars on the later models will be more comfortable than the older clip ons. I may end up getting an older carbed model and then converting it to a...

Well, a year and a half after I sold my Bonnie Black I think I am back in the market for another Trumpet. A Thruxton this time. I bought a Suzuki Bandit immediately after I sold the Bonneville. It was everything the Bonneville wasn't. It was stupid powerful. It was dead reliable. No...

I don't have anything against Dodge. I'm not a "Brand Loyal" person. I like the Chargers just fine. I liked the Magnum even better. It's a shame it got discontinued. I'd be all over the Challenger if it was about 25% smaller. It's too big to be a pony car. The Corolla, while boring was...

My corolla was made in the US. Here's a little trick I learned during my short stint in the car industry: Look at the first digit of your vin. 1 = USA 2 = Canada 3 = Mexico J = Japan I sold Chrysler products for a couple of years, and while some were built in the US, most were...
