Bianchi though should be one colour, and one colour only, Celeste Green.

900cc – that’s ADORABLE! My Sportster is 1200, and my two softails are 1924cc each.  😁

The Sporty will wheelie if not careful, the tuned Softail Low Rider will do an ungodly speed – I’ve never found out where the end point is! The Bob is a ripper, and is getting Stage 1 ai…[Read more]
