I wonder if one could fit a SV engine in that! It might make it a tad more reliable!

Chazzy and Greg...On my all time wish list would be something like a Vincent Black Shadow and so I can appreciate anyone's liking of such machinery.

However as I am under 70 years of age given the choice of the GP6,M1 Yamaha or GP Ninja or your Egit wotsit,I know for sure what I would go for!

Perhaps pottering along leafy country lanes on an ultra retro copy is more for some than others. I guess it's what keeps life interesting!

Or just maybe that is the funniest bit of trolling I have seen in a long time! :P

That Duke would need a topbox and saddlebags on it if I was to consider it for a winter hack.
Anyway I called them and told them I'd buy it if they threw in a tank of fuel and some waterproofs.And would they take my GT550 in PX?
