The reviewer seemed to like everything except the power. Not bad, handling, braking, seating and style all got high marks.


We all like to think of ourselves as rugged individualists. But when push comes to shove most of us are sheep who do what we are told. Worst of all, a lot of us become unpaid agents of whoever is controlling the agenda by enforcing the current dogma on the few rugged individualists who actually exist.

What is the Magazine? Is a webzine? If so what is the address?

Saw that. Not too bad a review, but they made it sound as if the Speedmaster had just hit the market.

This review is in the June issue of Motorcyclist Magazine. I got my copy yesterday.

They are of course testing a stock bike. I wonder what the review of a brand new bike with decent after market pipes, removal of snorkel, AI, and rejet , and adjustment of air mixture screws would read like?

Probably be different these bikes come to life with a few minor changes.

Cycle World also reviewed the Speedy. They also had a nice article about the R3 tourer.

I jsut read the article. It's not bad. It's a better article than the one in Cycle World. I am just glad to finally see some press about our bikes.
