I can find a bunch of later years for decent money , but no interest with then either. I am now down to 2 choices and I have 'til Monday to figure it out because I'm gonna be w/o a bike by Tuesday so times a tickin', I feel really insecure w/o a motorcycle for some reason.....seems kinda silly for a grown man, eh?

So sitting on a sawhorse making Evo engine noises isn't working anymore?

You're right...I will drop the coin 4 sure. Right-on, and glad to see that you are on 2 wheels, nothing to be ashamed of there (unless it was a moped, then we'd have to end the conversation talking about fat chicks!))
