2008 Harley Davidson models - we're # 1!

Later, I heard the VFR start up, as the owner was preparing to leave - the Scorpions sounded very nice indeed.

Yamaha R6 Freeway Standup Wheelie
Spotted a sweet looking red and black Yamaha R6 on 880 this weekend. Snapped a side view, when the rider saw the camera bounced it up and rode a long standup wheelie.
