Red '95 >>> Street Rod ??

[John Soliday]

Just don't cheap out and use a .38 special in the chamber, I'd rather be
shot by a .22 short ;-)  I've unfortunately never hooked up with Scaps but
I'm sure we're still on good terms.  Well I'll probably keep the GPZ until
Spring unless someone wants it on the list.  Tonight I'll be rearranging the
garage to get all of them including the VRSCR in for the night.

So far I'm very happy with the VRSCR and would keep the GPZ if it were not
for space reasons (one car garage).  If anybody on the list wants pics or
details on the 95 with only 2K miles on it, let me know at
johnsoliday at msn.com.

Cheers,

John

John,
A .357! That would leave no doubt as to the kill part, but the clean part
might be tough to promise. 
You don't have to worry about me. (Watch out for Scaps, still) I would have
bought the V-Rod over any other Harley. I actually owned a Harli-verdecchi
Sprint 350 in the 70's. It couldn't keep up with Yamaha 175's, I know cause
I blew the engine trying!
I would love to buy your GPZ, but have no $3500 to do it with. And I am
having too much fun on the KLR to sell that. I might advise holding it
through the winter, and getting your price in the spring. After September
the buying frenzy subsides.
Good luck. (seriously though watch out for Scaps...)
