There is nothing I don't like about that picture!!! Great lookin' blonde, great lookin' hot rod, great lookin' bike, great lookin' bomber, it's all great lookin'! :D

I'm not familiar with that B-29. I'll have to Google it.

I see the photo is from K&N Filters. I use their air filters in most of my vehicles, and have been for years. Good stuff.

That's the real "Flagship 500".

Cool photo. My only complaint is the radial tires. :lol:

One may find in the long term that the B-29 is easier for one man to control, is cheaper to run, and takes significantly less maintenance........

I'd STILL take the B-29 over the blonde. Sure, both of them would eat up all your money but at least the 29 wouldnt keep talking!
