“"There are some things nobody needs in this world, and a bright-red, hunch-back, warp-speed 900cc cafe racer is one of them — but I want one anyway, and on some days I actually believe I need one.... Being shot out of a cannon will always be better than being squeezed out of a tube. That is why God made fast motorcycles, Bubba." Hunter S. Thompson, Song of the Sausage Creature, Cycle World, March 1995. ”
He was talking about the Ducati 900ss here of course, I always wanted one, 3 year’s ago I got one, they say you should never meet your hero’s, it doesn’t apply in this case, it’s a truly glorious machine, if you haven’t got one, go out now and buy one!, it’s a decision you’ll never regret, full of “soul” a visceral snarling beast of a bike, anyway back to Hondas:)
