Ok Bill.... I'm going to mail you some dvd's or cd's (whichever you have the capability to burn) and I want every picture you have on your computer.

Also...

If that's your garage I'm going to come visit for the rest of my life. That ok with you? ;)

I don't judge... and I'm not racist. I have a color TV.  :D

Maybe if we kept it pertaining to motorcycles? lol.

Something about your collection sounds fishy... Perhaps your security is soooo good that  even THEY don't recognize you as the true owner?  8)

yeah, not my favorite color either but it's a neat piece. i envy you mm' having seen a 'timeless' harley replica in the flesh. i'd get one and it would be worth getting tickets for riding it on the road.

now excuse me while i log on to ebay... and fantasize.

Sweet baby jesus.  We're gonna have to start calling this the hot babe thread.  I can't believe the Antique Motorcycle Works is less than 30 minutes from here.  I'm making that a mandatory stop on the next Portland ride.  Okay so that was really fun and man, I love the Nimbus.


/edit: the 64 Triumph is pretty sweet too!

That Guzzi was one of the nicest bikes I have ever seen in person. Every part was well thought out and the attention to detail was amazing. Very many hand made billet parts.
