Maybe I am way off base once again, BUT I read all this talk about how bikes are built and how pretty this is and & that etc, how rare they are and all the different bits and bobs they have, BUT why do we buy bikes, to hang on the wall and look at?? marvell at how fine they are built?? and what wonders of enginnering they are??? I think to the autos that are built Porsches Ferrari Mazas etc, they also are all marvels of enginnering BUT they are ALSO driving machines and do what they are built for (Sometimes!!) So once again how about
   some feedback about how all these bikes, you all throught at the mouth about. RIDE. Is A Hetchins with Curly doodobs on its whatamacallit, Hand bult Rene
