I know that posting photos of girls here might not be the inspiration ya'll were thinking of, but I don't want to appear perverted and be seen lurking the Hot Babes Thread.  My apologies to anyone who might be offended.  Just let me know and I'll take them down...  :)
I find them inspiring!

Here is an assortment of bikes/cars I saw on my trip to SF/Oakland last week.  Some are inspirational, others not so much . . .

Hi Ecosse, if you were talking about the little blue "ute" it is a Morris 1000, this was my wifes first car, i really like the "pickups" but they need faster motors, they couldn't pull the skin off a rice pudding.... ;D

Hmmm, maybe they were duall branded or I got it Wrong.

The one I seen has an alloy box, and the rear fenders are held on with dsuz fasteners. The front fender line extends into the doos.
 There is one like that here and a guy on a farm has a pair of bigger flatdecks..

That bodywork must be available in the parts department... anyone care to photoshop it onto a K3 for me?

It's a stock bike. The lower side fairings are available as an 'add on' feature. Do a search for Ducati Sport 1000S or Paul Smart 1000. They're basically the same bike. Sorry, but I suck at photoshop.

Thanks B!
