Good lookin' bike. I haven't paid attention to them in a while and they've changed a lot. If you really want to travel in style for long distances, it's probably the way to go. "As for the Google thing, I thought America was supposed to be a land of the free and all that ;-) So long as you're not a threat to security I wouldn't worry about it. Fact is that everyone, everywhere, is being monitored on the internet from the moment they connect, in both your neck of the woods and mine - everywhere!" Land of the free? Oh yeah, but that was a long time ago. The line between who is a threat to national security and who isn't is getting thinner every day. I mean, over here they can get access to every library book you ever checked out in the last 5 years if they want to. They'd be scratching their heads over my reading list! Comics, American History, woodworking, books on films and filmmakers as well as animation. Throw in books about Russia during WWII and the French Revolution and I'm sure they'd be reeling! So, are you going to Bryce that bike?
