    Its a great destination if your interested in all makes and model motorcycles.

    There are 700 items on display in the museum.

    Swap Meet was great, lots of vendors to check out, had a chat with Chop whilst we were there and purchased some bits of him :-)

    Put it in the calendar and venture up next year you wont be disappointed.

    Nothing personal ol'mate.
    You don't have to over compensate or justify owning one,If there was more passion for that model then the MoCo wouldn't have gone the way of the Do-Do.

    But the LE will go down in history as the model that killed a great motorcycle company.
    [What was the CEO thinking]
    Hence the term Jinx bike..
    Think 54 Indian.
    T140.Triumph.
    etc

    Totally agree with you, I like the LE because its different, and its Ugly, that is what the appeal was when I first saw that model.

    Most companies have made a crap looking bike.

    Many motorcycle companies have gone down the tubes over the years, its just something that happens to so many companies.

    Lots of British motorcycle companies closed due to the Japanese market, the British were very set in their ways from what I can see so that was their demise.

    They either get bought out by a big company or just go down in history.
