Yeah I am, always liked them but to get one without rust issues is very hard. I've had a EG6 and EK9 so I want to try a EF9 next if I can get my hands on one. There was one for sale here in Ireland about a month ago with Regamasters on it, was spotless but I hadn't the money.

Yeah they are very hard to come across, I'll probably end up going to England for one. How do you compare it to the Ferio?

One bad-ass ride my friend.
To me, there are only a few ways to make black look good on this body style, you nailed it with what you did and did not do.
