Hate to have it fall on their foot.

That's understandable.   ;)

Of all of your bikes iterations I like it's current look the best. The red is gorgeous and the black wheels look far better with it than the red. I dig it!

Your bike makes me miss my C14.....until I crack the throttle on the Tuono ;)

Which is great until I'm at the grocery store trying to load the bike...or wanting to ride for a few hundred miles at a shot....I need to buy another ST bike huh?
No, really, she is the best and I can prove it...

ZG's camera will wear out much sooner than his C14.

That was funny because it seems so true.

However, Jay is taking the Gen-1 C14 through more iterative color combinations than all other COG participants combined!
Whatever one may think of his relentless activity (creativity, insanity, boredom, too much $, restlessness, etc.) it has to be admitted that the show is worth watching...if for nothing else than to satisfy our curiosities about how our own C14s would look with similar design schemes.
