That's a beautiful bike, Jeff! I have one that's similar...

This is a '75 model that I bought in 1997 with 18k on it. It's not a museum piece like Jeff's; I'm the 4th owner and I've since put another 26k miles on it. But it's so much fun to ride, especially here, on the Pacific Coast Highway near Big Sur!

That's not my bike, alas. I do not own an R90S.

I will be happy to take yours, however :lol:

I believe it was the British rag "Classic Bike" that said the Daytona Orange looks like something the design department came up with after a weekend trip to Amsterdam.

(Very nice looking in spite of that, Bruce! :))

Nice model! Who is the manufacturer? Since it is the right color I should add one to my collection, too.

Bruce -

I really like the Daytona Orange scheme. I bought this particular model from Motobins 3-4 years ago. They were having a sale. The box it came in is a Mobile Tradition box. I looked at the info on the bottom and it says Unique Replicas.

It's a nice, solid model. The wheels turn, the suspension works, the steering turns. I thought the seat opened up, but it appears to not do that. It's very detailed...
