Or maybe the mackinac bridge... That one is a bit unnerving to ride over! :shock:
Especially with a 50 mph side wind!

In the 80's a Yugo got blown off the bridge! :o http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mackinac_Bridge

The wind is just unnerving up there, and it seems windy every day. Otherwise its an incredible view!

Mackinaw Bridge is O.K. as long as you stay off the gridding . . . It's the Blue Water Bridge that scares the Cr@p outta me!

The pic is a bit deceiving but its a nice rider for sure. Tank is a bit dinged up so the bike will eventually get respray.

New tires, and a couple minor things and it will be ready to roll for this summer. Picked up a repop center rubber air inlet from the UK on ebay, the other 2 seem fine for now. And it came with NOS fork ears, the ones on the bike are pretty bent up.

Cody mentioned you had a kh250, and that you might have a paint code? I didn't realize they are pretty rare until I stopped by his house with it the day I bought it.

I intentionally had mine painted a wee bit deeper red than original. If you're interested I will get you the code..

Decals are actually KH400, but I'm not fussed about it.
