Here is my PRE with gray:

Techniums are an under appreciated vintage bike. You can find them for $100-300.00 and they way 21-22 pounds and can be easily upgraded with easy to find parts. I love them. Last year I found a SP1000 NOS frame and fork - basically a titanium Technium with a 531 fork and stays.

We chatted on a different thread a few weeks ago about Michigan! Good to see your bike. If we ever get to Gaylord I will bring my bike and give you a shout via PM. That would be a hoot to see two Technium PREs riding together.
