I'm not sure about the bike, but that girl has her photo on the slide show on Adventure Rider forum.  Looks to be the same bike.  Did you do the shot?  Care to tell us more about the bike?

its not ten years old Bob. i posted pixs of it here when i got it done. its only only a couple of years olds.

yes it is on adv rider, the guy who took the photos is a member there. in fact last i heard he is now dating the model. i have a couple of magazines it was in but i would guess Geoff tried to put it more.

Hmm, while I can't quite work out what they are writing about (seem to have misplaced my English-Japanese Dictionary), I'm a thinkin' it may have more to do with the girl rather than the bike.... ::)..no offence intended

here is what i have been able to translate so far.

"BMW R100 BOBBER, looks very compact, very coordinated, streamlined rare success".

And then one of them asks to see a photo of the chick's butt and the one dude supplies it (last post)

they got the R100 wrong.
