The mechanic who recently worked on my 550 Spyder, purchased one of the new 650 twins a while back. He let me take it out for a spin the day I dropped off the Spyder to him.

It sure seemed like a solid, well designed and well-built motorcycle to me anyway, Alan. And, much more so than any of RE's older single models.

(...in other words, I don't think the public's services in these regards will be a bit necessary)


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)
