    That was great. Thanks. I used to take my Triumph to Bud's shop on Ventura for repairs. Steve ad he used to trail ride ion the hills separating The Valley from LA proper. That must have been a big Bonnie they used for he jump scene.

    He should go on Pawn Star and see how much he can get for one of his motorcycles. I would say at least half what he is asking for.
