| Who'd snatch up a RWB CE Replica? Tarantado's nice pics reminded me...
For all the fuss being made over the Repsol...
Who here wouldn't jump all over a CE-replica in the American Patriotic theme?
Edit: pic attached
A friend recently sent me a link to a local dealer selling a Bostrom 998s. Wickedly tempting... (And my wife openly admits she doesn't have to worry about me cheating on her. She figures I'll just come home with a stupidly expensive bike or car instead.  )

| Re: Who'd snatch up a RWB CE Replica? Admittedly, I'm not much of a replica guy, but I don't remember a 954 ever being raced w/ the CE's Stars and Stripes paint?  |

There has also never been any other 954 like that one. |

Hey, at least I didn't sell any guns. So I still got that going for me.

| Re: Who'd snatch up a RWB CE Replica? I'd buy a CEII RC51 rep in a heartbeat...I've always wondered why Honda did come out with that rep instead of the Nicky Hayden rep....Edward's rep is much better looking to me.... |

BTW, where the hell you been?  |

BTW, where the hell you been?  | And the Nicky rep has a built in affinity for the dirt...thus Honda makes more $$ on replacement bodywork. |
