Can you wheelie a V7?

Gerry, met a friend of yours at vintage fest. He and his son were in the museum. Of course I have forgotten his name.

It's Sal, and he texted me about the meet.

I tried to send you and robin some pics from The last BTB I had on my cell to the email address robin gave me . Did you get them?

She never mentioned it. If you still have them you can send them to me at paulw4064@gmail.com

Sal seemed like very nice people. I really enjoyed talking to him.

Dan already called from Hawaii and told me to get him a silver R with the fairing
He didn't offer to pay for it
I'll keep it in the dining room until he comes back
Doug will probably want one too but I don't know if his new wife will let him

You'll want to call the dealer and pre-order them, there aren't a lot being made for dealer stock.

I think I might clear out the garage and sell my 2001 Bonny ,1976 Bonny and 1971 BMW
I want one :drool:
Either that or I may drop a lot of $$$ on my 01 Bonny and make her a brand new 1200 Bonny ? :scratchhead:
Getting ready for another !#*@ing winter.

I wish every one a Happy Thanksgiving

You need a seat cover for that sofa on your 800 prior to The Bash.

Actually it's still about 6.5 months... But I'm glad you're so enthusiastic!
