Tonight, finally got around to looking at one of the motorcycle related presents I got this past Christmas - The Encyclopedia of Harley Davidson by Peter Henshaw and Ian Kerr. I was really looking forward to the read, until I got to the first page on the back of the Contents page. The caption says "Beautifully restored vintage Harley-Davidson in Geneva". If the picture isn't of a 1998 or 1999 Yamaha Royal Star 1300 touring bike, I'll eat the fairing off my Ultra! Now...I have to wonder if this wasn't an intentional thing on the part of the authors to see if anyone caught it. If you have a copy of this book, have a look and let me know if I have to get chewing on that fairing.

I forgot to mention a couple of things that stood out for me in determining that this photo was not of a restored H-D: clearly visible radiator, visible driveshaft, modern controls...or just maybe Yamaha copied an older model H-D for their Royal Star line??? Dang, I hope I don't have to eat that fairing, it's kinda nice having it...
