I wish they still made the old 1000cc ThunderAce. That was a cool bike.

Oh and remember the RF900R Suzuki...Neat styling!

The Original DeltaBox! Awesome bike, good frame, first bike with 50% weight distribution and I think the first twin-spar aluminum frame.

yamerhaw, there is one for sale here in NC for $2800 if I remember correctly it was really clean, so much so that I really wanted it too, but could not justify the expense at this time, if I can dig it up I will forward it to you.
