I've seen it there, looks just as good in person. Been there quite a while IIRC.

Holy crap.  I'm going blind!  I see it now.

I also see the Centauro footpegs and pedals.

So, why does everyone remove the airboxes from these bikes?  I don't get it.  Still have mine.

Those are the bikes that I like do buy.  Low mileage and mods financed by the first owner.

At or near the asking price and you'd be financing all the mods and some of the bike.

So you can expand the capacity of the fuel tank, that might just be me though.

Never at asking price.  Should have put that in. :shocked:
