Chuck!

You need a ''NEW OLD'' Masi that has curves like a beautiful women... that will ''SLICE'' through the middle ''3'' motorcycles down a winding downhill run! And maybe take a stab at three cars on a single pass too!,,,,,,,A bike that can ''KILL'' on looks alone!!!!!!!!!..........Was this for reals!..........Yes!....And all on a Masi!!!

''FLYING'' down the ''GAP'' hwy ''9''..........on a run back home to San Jose from Santa Cruz California! Fellow riding buddies thought I was ''NUTs'', but the bike just wanted to go!.................And at times, she felt like a wild horse when putting on the brakes trying to slow her down!.....So I went with it the way she wanted to go, and many times after!.....She would do everything I wanted her to do.

I lost her in the fire last November! Anybody out there got a 54-55 ct, I need a ''FIX''! Frame will do,.........I got lots or parts!

Wayne ! I was ''SUPER SERIOUS'' on the one you got from ebay! Then I read your post, so took to a side lines........................''YOU LUCKY DOG''! I was ready to take her to the ''HILL''!.................Just glad that another list member got it!

Sorry guys! I don't get in on much of the talk, but this ''Masi Flying Scot'' thing got me going...............and I long for another Masi!

Chuck!...........The racer ''position'' conspiracy thing! I don't believe it myself.. But if it gets a few more to swing a leg over the top tube, then so be it! The main thing for me is to see more people on ''2'' wheels, not ''4''!

Need to get back to my ''NEW TOYs''.........................Bike stuff of course!

Regards,
BC
Baron Corpuz.......................Holland!
