Hi John,
Sorry to hear of your misfortune in Canada, but glad to hear just
cosmetics.
I'm just getting caught up from being gone for 3 wks.
Alan Barbic and I rode the Northwest Passage together and finished as
co-2nd place finishers. 1st place co-winners were Gary Egan and Rick
Morrison. Alan and
I would get me a CBR1100XX
(got one already)

Value is relative.
What people are willing to pay ALWAYS determine the price, not what you

does any one know if new ones still available in the US?
I believe I got the last GTS in a crate (new 94) 2 years ago this coming

Mississippi River.
I do not believe that there are any NEW ones available in the US anymore.

Couple of corrections on the card:
#1. The photo needs to be Blue.
#2. The weight according to my service manual is 615# for the 49 state bike
and 617 for the CA model.
Otherwise it looks cool.
