    Lol. You took the bait. Again! I can't find it right now, but I actually came across a Boxer on a particular FB page, that gave me a stiffy! No tassles required. There's only two or three HD's I'd ever want to own. None of them I'll ever be able to afford.

    What do you lot think about this one?

    Disclaimer: I have one sitting in the garage, reg'd in great unrestored condition, that I scored for very little money a few years ago. No idea what it's worth, no intention of ever selling it.

    Won't be surprised if it fetches $8

    What were those twin cylinder Suzukis back in the day - wolf or something - had twin high pipes one either side in my minds eye - mainly painted green. Sure it was the wolf but some good craft brew may be clouding my memory.

    Not a 'mach 1' but in the 70's as a learner {UK} I had an early Kwaka S1 250 they were good for a 'ton' or bloody close to it. Anyway, I overtook this yellow 'BSA?' cafe racer thing on a ride, and then got absolutely cleaned out when we hit the twisty stuff'... It was a 250 Desmo, bloody quick thing for a single.

    Get rid of those money pit sidecars and stop being a " bit on the side'.
