    Nice winter shoes. What kind of rubber soles do they have? I'll wait another month & a half before Skooby gets the new winter shoes installed.

    Wow 80HP and 1150 that power to weight ratio is close to a modern mini. but over 1000lb lighter. Those cars must be a blast. I wish I had bought the last one I looked at. What awesome little cars!

    That was the plan, but now those noisy, dirty OEM brakes are an issue [even though they are still pretty new] and the R50 thinks IT is the "chosen one", since it's been down to MOTD the last 2 years.

    I have new tires on the R53. They act like summer tires but are all seasons. If I didn't know better, I'd swear they are runrocks, and that is also an issue, since I-75 is such a bumpy drive both ways.

    Picking up my wheels from the powder router today. As soon as I get the R53 back together I will be up for sale. A sad day it will be. I hope I find it a good home.

    Well I am buying a new motorcycle............Something has to go, I just wish it wasn't the R53 but I had a good run with it. I will miss it. Maybe one day I can get a Gen1 GP.
