Do you mind me asking how much it cost?  I was in a BMW store today (dropping some money on new leathers  Bigsmile) and saw a 2005 in great shape.  It had 3 bags (side panniers and top case) and a handful of options.  This one had about 35k miles on it, and they were asking $9,999

Ken I'm so happy to see you back on two wheels again. This can only help your soul be Recharged from all his time with out two wheels. The bike is beautiful I think you got a steel of a deal, now go out and ride it like you stole it. I think this calls for a California meet this coming year.
Seriously buddy it's good to see you back on two wheels, good luck with your new ride

Congrats Kenny Thumbsup

Good looking bike for sure.  
If you feel the need to put some miles on, ride on up here, and we can head out San Francisquito Rd up to The Rock Inn for lunch, my treat.

Welcome back to the two-wheeled fold.  What's the over/under for your first performance award?   Bigsmile


Should we begin a pool? Bigok

Does this mean that the venerable ksann might show for WCRM this year?
