Boy you are going to love the heat in Camp Verde in June!!!! Its a lot cooler over here in the Prescott area. I used to live just up the road from dirty verde up until a few years ago in Lake Montezuma. Watch out for all the tweakers in the Verde valley

Yea for sure get a hold of me while you are out here. Its about 45 miles to Camp Verde from me. Its just right over the mountains from me!!! I still got my old ticket stubs from the concerts at the Amphitheater!!! Front row was only 12.50!!!!

Dr. Gamma,
Absolutely beautiful. I've never been much for chrome and flashy paint. Give me a bike built for pure function and I can stare at it all day long. It's like the rainbow colors of a titanium weld or the interlaced pattern of hand laid carbon fiber. For those who understand it, its a true work of art.

Until I put the chrome front fender on my MK II, the only thing shiny on the bike was the inner fork tubes!!!!

Yea, the rainbow welds on titanium pipes are a thing of beauty in my book.

Its almost a shame to paint over carbon fiber too!!!

I am going to get rid of the scratched, and dinged up fuel tank on the bike real soon.

It kinda detracts from the rest of the bike.

Great work Dr. those mk2's are so iconic and and look so nice when sorted.

And a belated mention also to Ness for the very tidy 750 that I missed last month.

Just hope we don't run out of worthy contenders with this continual monthly toll over the years of some of the best bikes here.
