@@drummerchappell He's always had red bikes, it was a thing of his, they were also always BMW's. He started with a GS1100 I believe, then had a couple GS1150's, and his last bike was a GS1200 if i'm not mistaken. So since mid 90's since he started seriously riding he has owned several. Which one really doesn't matter, it would be just as cool as any other! He was known for selling his higher mileage bikes to crew members around the time he would buy a new one.
