But when you pull up next to an interesting bike or rider, the light changes green in ten seconds.

I've seen a Yamaha GTS1000 with it's massive beam front suspension and shock. But the Tesi had a delicate trellis front suspension. Pictures don't do it justice.

Steve, I don't go to Erico's. They are so friendly, I'm afraid I'll ride out on a new Ducati. Speaking of Erico's, did you go to Gary Eagan's talk a few years ago about his Iron-butt rides? There's an article about Eagan in the May issue of Motorcyclist.

And I did Lookout Mountain yesterday. Brought my camera and saw nothing. Except for the black clouds that were rolling in from the northwest. Looked like summer thunderstorm clouds so I went down quickly. Only saw one bike, a gray bike in a switchback that was going up. That wasn't you Steve, was it? I had my black Suzuki. What were you riding?
trellis front swingarm? Sounds like a tesi 3d
