With all the new '05's coming out I figured to take a peek at what Honda was bringing to the show. WTF is this?

Not too sure, but certainly has a more comfortable seat than my S1. |

Off-road scoot. They're quite popular in Japan. |

They need the brush guard and hand deflector thingys off the City X to finish the look! |

Hey, if it geriatric, it needs training wheels. "Help, I've fallen....and I can't get up!" |

Actually those things are very handy around our horse shows to get around. Go to a big horse show and you'll see those little bastards all over the place. |

After dissatisfied Rucus owners started complaining on a message board called Bad Weather Scooters. The Honda Motor Company found that indeed there was a market for Sport Oriented Touring Scooters. The model to be released in 2005.Picture posted above Here is the more Sport oriented Rucus from last year. One of the many that love the little underpowered quirky handling Rucus.

Newfie...having seen pics of Court, Bomber and Road Thing in as their former selves, the young man does resemble Crusty in a way. |

Nah, I've had a beard since the mid '70s. However, I can agree with his sentiments. I had a sport-tourer back then; a Moto Guzzi V7 Sport. I rode that bike to all three coasts, raced it for a season and a half and was still in love with it when it was stolen. It was as reliable as an anvil; even though it was a bear to shift, and the front Four shoe drum brake left a lot to be desired. It was a joy to ride, especially through the Rockies(I lived in Colorado Springs back then). |

Well Crusty, You still have one coast to visit!!!! I am holding you to that one when Terri is feeling better. How is she doing? |

We thought that the doctors had a handle on the Migraines. Terri went three weeks without a Migraine, but they came back this past Wednesday, and she's been really sick since. It really is a drag watching her be so ill and being unable to do anything to make her feel better. We're hoping that they hit on something that works soon. |

Crusty: On the subject of your wife's headaches... I am guessing the doctors went through all the usuals like Imitrex? My wife had migraines for almost 12 years due to a fractured skull. (parting gift from an ex husband) She went through all the drugs, etc. We actually found a massage therapist that was trained in "manipulation". This guy worked on her for about an hour at a time with a full massage and then he would grip her from behind and place her neck in traction, some how releasing the strain on her vertebrae. Actually after about a month of this the headaches minimalised to a tolerable level. The other option is: beg for a medical pot prescription! I know some docs that used that when all else failed.
