A blind man would love to see that...

Bike look really great Jody.

An original 81SH, is the only bike I haven't got good pics of for the ID thread. Would you take some pics I could use, when its on the road. A nice side shot or about 20° from the side from the front at about headlight height.
I know not asking much, just don't see the nice silver models, I think they are a good colour on the XS.

Thanks! Sure, when it warms up I'd be glad to.
