Welcome to the site! Don`t the R-46`s come standard in that day and night paint scheme Rossi designed?
Really? So you guys get Gauloses paint jobs? I think I`d prefer that to Rossi`s personal paint job. Noting aginst him, but his sense of style is definately an aqquired taste. I did like how the bike is black on one side and yellow on the other though, that`s an intresting idea.

That`s a bummer about the tickets, my friend went over to the states in the summer holidays and bought me a copy of Super Street Bike, not a bad read. Good insight into the custom bike culture stateside for someone who`s never experienced it firsthand, too.

Hey & welcome,
Total bummer about the tickets, I never knew domestic flights in the states cost so much!
Anyway, if you need to make the text bigger it's possible through most modern browsers, shoot me a message if you need a hand.
Bike sounds cool, go get some photo's uploaded in the gallery!
Have fun,
Ben.
