Bluez, nice bike.. I think I counted 4 CB's total in your pic.. I was stationed at Fort Benning for a while.. Hot as hell down in GA...I couldnt imagine wearing a helmet on those blistering summer afternoons.

At the start of this thread I had a pic of my KO and me, but none of the K6. So here's one.

Us guys have to have very understanding wife's to put up with our sohc4 hobby. She didn't want me to take her pic, but here's my girl of 32 years with the 750K6. Pretty isn't she ;) thanks honey for being a good sport.
