Hey Nice Tezza, but,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

I love these slim line Sherpas, not just for ride fun, but to me they have always looked like the ultimate sex on wheels,,,,,
might just be because I'm a sick, maybe,,,
But of all the bikes I have had,,,, I think these slim line things are just pure Beautiful

Except maybe for the right woman,,maybe,,,,and she would have to be wearing no underpants,,that's for sure

The blue tank is an aluminum Homerlite unit and was supplied with UK spec'ced sherpas until the M159. Fiber glass and plastic tank tanks were illegal in the UK until about 1980.
