Benny, Tried posting last night. My computer fought me hard,and won. It wasn't the blue/black Thruxton(he was a good guy). But the all black one with the crazy exhaust. Both were nice rides. I'm partial to the all black Thruxton, my brother had a brand new one w/450mi on it as well as the speedmaster when he passed away. We'll have to do it all again soon. I'd like to get out to that Long Island bike night some time this summer. We'll see. Paul
