That cracked me up Paul and what Tim said about the airport.pjmcburney wrote:Heh...
they got the ugly stick out and gave this masterpiece a hell of a flogging.

I wish the guy no hard luck, it's entertaining when you run across a guy with so much enthusiasm, I always wonder, do they ready buy this them-self? I don't think I will ever know. Of course I am not trying to buy this either so sitting back and watching is not so bad.
I have a neighbor that every time he does something to his car (82 Firebird, rattle can painted), "it's a" you would not believe how well it runs now! I chg the plugs, OMG it screams, you know I tore up a Porshe today! He was in traffic and I flew right by him! He is serious, good guy and entertaining to listen to.

Hey Terry,
Thanks, mission accomplished! I made someone laugh with me (not AT me which is more usual).
If I was on the lookout for another GT, and I was in the US, I'd probably drop this dude a line.
However, the only way I'd be willing to consider buying this bike is if he removed all the crap that is on it and refurbished it back to as close as OEM as possible with any spare bits he still had.
And he could dump/burn/give away/sell (yeah, right) all the 'features' himself separately, coz I wouldn't be taking them.
I'm not an absolute stickler for originality necessarily, but I bought a GT750 because I liked the way Suzuki made 'em look in the 70's, not how dimwits want 'em to look, no matter how innocent or noble their efforts.
What goes through people's minds when they do this sort of thing to their vehicles?
I guess there is no accounting for taste...
There should at least be a ban on King/Queen seats - instant conflagration for the lot of them!
Cheers
Paul
