Interesting, I have bought two withing the past year...  Has anybody tried beemerrich_49503@hotmail.com ?  I bought my last one (for my '95 R100) from him for $105...  I don't know if he is still selling them or not but he used to list on ibmwr.org...

Justin, he's got nothing at the moment on Ebay or ibmwr, but I just emailed him to check his inventory. He's the guy up in Grand Rapids that makes Brown repros, I've seen his listings before.
Maybe I'll get lucky...

Matt's been out of R65 stands for at least a coupla months now.
Meanwhile, the Surefoot is also out of stock at Motobins, and I can't get replies from Re-psycle or beemerrich_49503@hotmail.com , both of whom sell Brown clones.

I'm beginning to think it's an omen that I spend 150-or-so bucks on something else... ::)

Find me a Brown's for sale and I'll buy it: there are none, apparently.
Meanwhile, I'm off to check out a new gun shop...

PS: John, test rides today at the Guzzi dealer in Burlington, NC, http://www.midcarolinapowersports.com/ .
If you get bored and want to take a road trip, it's maybe 3 hours from you, straight up I 85...

Nope, I haven't seen mine yet, but you're a lot closer to The Man in Michigan, so maybe it'll come today.

I'm looking forward to getting it installed and thoroughly tested this weekend, hopefully.
