| Delivered new today. Adjusted all the controls, checked everything, all good. First 60 miles...I now have a new best friend. Thanks for having me. Great info here and friendly, can't ask for more! (this is bike #14 current!) Sick, I am. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] | |

| Thanks all. Damn addictive hobby. A bit about me...
I owned a small bike repair shop back in the mid 70's, worked at an HD dealer and raced flat track for them also late 60'-70's. Was a master tech at a Honda bike/car dealer for 39 years. Retired in '13. Enough about my past...
Here's the list of what I currently have...
'67 Velocette, '68 Aermacchi CR DT, '66 750 Triumph Trackmaster, '70 Triumph TR6 TT style, '72 SOHC Honda Turbo, '72 Honda C-70, '72 750 Champion Yamaha, '73 Jawa 2-speed Speedway, '77 Champion YZ250, '82 CB900F, '83 Honda FT500 Ascot, '98 Superhawk, '12 Concours14, 1934 hi-boy roadster, and now the new GRiSO.
As far as the GRiSO purchase, I wanted something with a bit of soul...this does it for me. Very sweet bike.
Forgot to mention, I ain't married! | |

| Welcome. Nice GRiSO ... and moto-harem. BTW, the USA as location and blurred tag may mean you're some witness-protection-program, but, unless concerned about outing of that -- or that we might steal one of those various metal jewels (actually, an understandable worry)  -- might you narrow that geography a wee bit?  Best, Bill | |

| Sure Bill. I'm in Northern California.  The blurred tag is just the dealer ad. That suffice? | |

| No, they didn't have one. Not a friendly place too. Bought it at Elk Grove Power Sports. Way better store. | |
