True story. My wife and I disembarked the RS (second from left) to go into the Grand Mesa Visitor Center, leaving it in an empty parking lot. When we returned, all these other bikes had gathered. Just goes to show you how utterly attractive the RS is. I thought that guy on the right might be pretend-peeing on an "S", but no it's a Ducati.

There are two roads in life; the twisty one is vastly more fun.
Thinking that the lone RT will not denigrate the S-ness of this pic......

You have a point there. How long did the RS Oilhead run? Ten, maybe eleven years? I am not as familiar with the S Bike. Didn't it run into the late 2000s? There was a hexhead S, right? Too bad bad there is not a current configuration of these bikes. Don't get me wrong, I am not complaining about it. I understand it is a business. If the sales aren't there...
It would be fun to think what they might look like today.

R11S ran from 1999 to 2005, then a 1 year R12S version (the barber pole bike in my earlier 4 pack pic.)
. and just so those dang RSs don't get ahead of us....

That 4 Pack Pic is pretty cool. How did you end up getting four in the same shot? You weren't at Sheads...I mean S riders anonymous were you?![]()
