Ahh yes, like clockwork, the annual KLR color scheme thread. R -----Original Message----- From: Judson D.

How many of those Speed Triples did triumph ever sell in metallic fuchsia?

Then again, the brakes weren't too good, so what you had was a well-balanced machine. Still, the Model 362 Jawa was one of only two bikes to earn a place in the Whole Earth Catalog, And the MZ TS250 is a brilliant little bike, if you're not in a hurry.

Holy crap, Batman! And I was worried that my 95 Barbie special was too much of a fag bike. Not that there's anything wrong with riding a fag bike, at least, not if you're riding alone, in the dark, where nobody can see you. Mark --- In DSN_klr650@yahoogroups.com, Jim wrote: > OMG.
