Love the smell of two stroke. Not quite as much as Castrol R, but not much less.

Sold my MZ today, that's a bit more room in the garage. Hopefully the Harley will sell soon, then i'm going to start looking for an every day bike to replace the supercub too, @Jerzy Woking how do you find your NC750?
