    The fun side of my brain says to buy a bike

    The no fun practical side says save the $ and fly.

    I guess this time, i will listen to the practical side

    I really hate the practical side sometimes........

    Have to admit, if I didn't have a BMW R1100RT to ride this winter I'd probably be in the market for a Kaw Cop Bike again...

    Over? OVER???? Nothing is over until we decide it is!

    Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?

    NO!

    And its not over now!!!!!






    its got a cop motor, cop transmission, cop tires, cop suspension.

    It was built before catalytic converters, so it runs on regular gas.


    (I need to fix the cigarette lighter tho)
