Very nice Paramount. I noticed it on ebay a couple days ago. It is my favorite Paramount that I have seen on ebay.

Better for some one to ride and enjoy it, than for it to hang in my garage.

Takes me back sixteen years to when the first wife *****ed about the one motorcycle I had in the garage. I filed for divorce six days later.
