Hi all,

so, other than it's rosy hue what is makes this bike sufficiently special to occupy the front cover of a bike mag and the mast head position of TOL. Is it it's specifications, provenience or history perhaps?.  I can see the obvious, 150 engine, duplex frame,160 tank, an exhaust that subscribes to the theory that too much is barely enough and of course, a colour that would have Lenin stirring in his mausoleum, those waxy narrow lips starting to hum the International. 

Not sure it's to my taste but then again I own a T 140 with original 'poo & wee' colour scheme (brown and gold with brown seat) which I imagine many others wouldn't warm to but I think looks pretty sharp

regards al
