Only on the ticket. I was once stopped for riding red (Moto Guzzi) in the middle lane of an interstate while cages were passing me on the left. Red bikes attract cops like a red cape attracts bulls.

I just purchased my first bike. It's an R65LS. Is there any person here who has one as well (I assume there is). I have a few trouble shooting questions. I bought the bike for $1500 with the hard case saddle bags. I think it was a steal. Was it, or not? It is an 83. All it needs is a new speedo, front brake job, and either a generator or battery (not sure which yet). Any info would be appreciated.

I'll give you $1600 for it!
