The kid who bought a Mustang I had lovingly kept and modified wrecked it soon after he bought it. My friends figured I’d be devastated, but it wasn’t mine anymore, and I was on to new car and motorcycle projects.
What was interesting about the BMW was that it was just as I had left it. The guy who bought it said he was going to do a full custom brat/cafe treatment on it, and that the wonky ABS was not going to be a concern because he was going to strip it down to the essentials.
Aye, Gone.
Aye, Gone.
I ran across this car I bought new in '99 in a parking lot yesterday...
Oh wait it's still my car 23 years later. I know it's not a bike but interestingly enough it's geared nearly identical to our CB1100s where 4th on the 1100 corresponds to 3rd on the Cobra and 6th corresponds to 4th. The Cobra has a .67 overdrive 5th for the highway. The power bands are similar too. It's probably the only decades old Cobra on the planet with the original exhaust. Since I never intend to get rid of it I'll never be surprised to encounter it somewhere
