    Smile July 2012 Motorcyclist - Caponord review (the ol d ones)

    This months Smart Money page is devoted to the 2001-2007 Caponord.

    I think the value chart may be a little optimistic.

    And to think I dropped my Motorcyclist magazine subscription last year. Since Mitch left the helm they've become huge fans of splashing wheelie and stoppie pictures all over their publication.

    And I do like the snide reference to us lot under the Suzuki DL1000 too!
    I'd like to die on Mars. Just not on impact.
    The appropriate number of cylinders for any motorcycle is two.

    I want to make only one comment to the reference under the Suzuki DL 1000: Caponord is the best choice for those who like riding and make social connection in the same time with other Caponord owners, because we share the same smile when we ride our bikes and we cry together when anything fails
