I took delivery this AM of my 2017 BMW R1200R.  I used Uship to arrange transport from LA where I bought it from an individual.

I met the shipper at a nearby school to unload and to my delight and surprise, he had a Craig Vetter designed 1972 X75 in primo condition that he will deliver this aM to some lucky buyer in Denver.

My neighbor who is a Ducati and BSA fan stopped by when he saw the X75 on the lot.  Turns out, the shipper used to be the Route 66 Triumph dealer in Tulsa.  My neighbor who bought his first Ducati in the 70s in Tulsa,  knew many of his motorcycle contacts and the shipper is now a partner in the Route 66 Motorcycle Museum outside Oklahoma City.  That's how he got into transporting bikes as part of his museum and vintage bike restoration business.


.If you are not familiar with the X75, see this link  https://www.hemmings.com/stories/article/1972-1973-triumph-x75-hurricane

Of course, I need to show off my new ride too.
