Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)

Beautiful machine Frank. For an '04 model it's awfully clean looking. What's your secret?

Sorry to be a cretin but what eyebrows ? I don't understand this terminology.
Nice clean machine ... puts mine to shame , but I live on a gravel road so it's a battle

The "Eyebrows" are the style of tank badge.

I have a 60 metre. crushed rock driveway. What you have to do is, before you take any pics hose it down first.

Yeh Dave the Staintunes were on the bike when I bought it.

If they were a little cheaper you would probably see a lot more of them. (Somebody told me recently they are now $1400 in Oz.)
