Well, I have several "historical" books on motorcycles and that one is good...seems like they are asking more than origional retail price though...I think Amazon has them cheaper..... they are good reads as they tell the "factory story" of the goings on at the time.... etc

That must be one heck of a book. It's going for $429 for a new one on Amazon.

Yep, I have this book. I think I bought it back around 1996 or so...for maybe 30 or 40 bucks.
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)

It's a First Edition hence the price tag - worth it's weight in chrome.

we always look for reasons to use the word "hence"
If it isn't broke, I haven't messed with it.
