    Funny, Nate and I just talked about you yesterday. Good looking bike, although I think I am going to go for a Bonneville.

    Good luck with your sale.

    I do like the Bonnies, but the triples are just SO SMOOTH and are a good deal more rare (particularly the T'bird Sport). Honestly it kills me to even consider selling her, and I'm looking around for other alternatives (paying for a garage for the winter months, etc.) :(

    Matt I could provide you some garage space this winter if you want more time to make the decision. My garage has enough space for a bike and it would be no problem to hold it for you. I always liked those so if it sat in my garage for the winter I might be able to sell the idea to Jill :)

    Yep, Triumph triples are a good demonstration of what a nice engine a triple is - much more character than a buzzy four. If the next series Mini's three-cylinder engine is as nice, it'll be lovely.

    Hehehe... if you think it'll help with the sell, LMK. The friend of mine who lets me store the classic said he has the room for both if it comes to that, but I'll drive to two places if it'll help a brother gets his'self a nice bike. :D And if she digs her heels in, I bet it'll sell in the Spring when people are looking. Thanks, man!

    This is a great time of year to buy a fair weather machine not sell one. In spring you'll sell it fast. Maybe to Allen.

    I just sent the link to a friend at work. He has been bouncing back and forth between getting a bike or some type of roadster. I'll let you know if he is interested.

    The TBS has WAY more character than some generic roadster. And it can TURN, too! Always gathers a crowd literally everywhere I stop (unlike generic "hawgs" where most people actually flee, due to excessive fart-like blatting). Have him drop me a line: imagox(at)yahoo(dot)com

    It's the excessive fart-like blatting, isn't it? Because they have medicine for that now... :D
