Guess I should of clarified.
"Friendly" is my middle name. Just ask AB. He met me last week...
Just wondering how many of you saw the 1982 # 11 that made a brief appearance the other day on feebay ?
Just looking for opinions (about the bike). I added my own down below a few replies (after I realized I should clarify better).
Any opinions (about the bike)? observations (about the bike)?
