Bessie turns 40
« on: August 21, 2007, 07:26:28 PM »
On the way home from Q's get together Bessie turned 40,000 on the Eastern Shore of Va.

This motor has 21,000 miles on it. I know not that many but it is a 124. Had this motor built to be able to ride cross country or play when needed. She ain't no trailer queen.

Would probably have 50,000 if it weren't in the shop for the good part of a year having this motor done. It is one of those things that give a dealer a bad name, but they did make good.
