If it was from Pubei Lu he has a frigging 1800 CC Suzuki Boulevard if you're interested.

Naaah, just pulling your legs, a man can dream, right ?

Here is the real one (yeah I know the protective plastic are still on the saddle, I removed them now of course...) :

I am so happy with my Skyteam that I haven't thought in year what would be my dream bike

It is for me something like talking about cameras in forums instead of going to do some photography.

Heck yeah I'm interested! I know, heresy. But I just love those cruisers and Harley's are rip-offs here...

Hey Wrangler,

No, they don't have anything bigger than 150cc, you can check out the current offers from Wuyang-Honda and Sundiro-Honda : http://www.honda-motorcycle.com.cn/d...cle/index.html

BTW, did you go to the spot I told you about near Changde lu to train on your bike ? Saw the parking lot is still there, still empty, but still with some trenches on one side.

Hey Fred, I have yet to go over. Actually, you know what really helps with the training? Take long rides. After my trip to Suzhou with Felix I found I was able handle my bike significantly better when I came back. I had a better sense of the capabilities of my bike and its limits. Spent about 12 hours of riding in a 2 day period.

BTW, another good reason to wear full helmet - found a big yellow, gooey spit wad on my helmet. Don't know if it was a taxi driver or bicyclist but it was disgusting.

You know what ? That's exactly what I already planned for tomorrow ! I'll spend maybe 6 hours on the bike tomorrow, will try to go around Dianshan Hu (Dianshan Lake) and Zhouzhuang. ;-)
