Hey, bprider679...
If you are asking about my blue one, it is a 1977 model.
Oh, and yrfuneralmytrial - that black Slash Six is GORGEOUS!
Lucky you!

'77 R100RS - What is good, Phaedrus, and what is not good--need we ask anyone to tell us these things?
Thanks orbitangel. It's far from perfect but looks great in the pic!
don't be saying that!! We who belong to the $2000 RS club don't have to worry about scratches or bugs or dirt or rain ... we just ride 'em. I don't care if my red smoke has 5 different shades of faded paint and I don't much care if you have got some wounds on your faithful steed. It is still getting you there and back with the most satisfaction.
BTW was that you on 142 going past Bong lasterday? That RS went past so fast I couldn't tell if it was your gray smoke or not.
I got this back on the road in August and have over 6k miles since then. Yep, it is a beat up RS. Yep, it is my tied-for-favorite motorcycle ever.

One more shot.

I like the bungee cords!
No, I only rode as far as the dentist's office yesterday.![]()
I was on 142 on Sunday though.
I do like not having to worry about stones and bugs.
How about this one?

Nice shot and I love that red bike. Your photo reminds me of one of mine.
I shot this one five years ago (another Wisconsin Fall.)

I can't stand it! I have my own version of your head-on shot too.

initial purchase price, as you call it, is the only thing that is accounted for. The rest is love and affection and rewards for good behavior.
"Why, you have been so-o-o-o fun to ride lately that I am going to get you these really nice EBC disks to replace those old grooved ones. You'd like that, wouldn't you? What's that? Why are you imitating the way that that black VW beetle talks on those Brooke Shields commercials. That's just being silly!"
Oooooh, I HOPE not!!!! That fur is pretty thick!Can you predict the harshness of the coming winters by how thick the coat grows?
I'll be sure to check my Farmer's Almanac, just to be safe.
