    I wash my GS once a year whether it needs it or not! Or NOT!!! My Suzi will get washed when I need to see some machinery parts for maintenance. My cameras are spotless. :D
    that photo was taken in early March... you know, when there was feet of snow outside?! So in other words, it was hibernating after its token end of season bath. You should see what it looks like today, rather than black it's now a lovely salt/dirt/mud gray-brown. :D

    Well, I didn't buy one but I did take one for a ride this afternoon :uhoh

    All those things fish said are true. Though not enough for me to trade up.
    On the other hand, the early year RT owner will find plenty of reason to
    consider the new 1200.

    Doc, you and the old man ought to go for a test ride soon.

    You already have a pair of very new dual spark boxers, no?

    What was it you said when you upgraded from a 10D to a 20D? lol3.gif

    Hey, when the keys are offered, you do what's natural and you ride it.

    BTW, I didn't upgrade from the 10-20d.
