Man! I wish I could agree with you guys on that thing, but to me its kind of ugly. I mean I understand the nostalgic aspect of the bike so...in that way I def think its cool. Wonder what another 50 years will do to the look of a bike?

Thats the kind of bike that turned me on to motorcycles as a kid.
That is one sweet, Bad *** bike and no doubt worth a ton of money.
I love it!... and wish it was mine!
Thanks for sharing.
