Hi Tom,

After your post I dug out the Jan 2000 issue of the newsletter (again) and
had another look at that retro Eldo. I have to tell you that the bike I
looked at on the front cover was awesome. I don't know what it is....the
tank, the seat. Just something about that bike that makes me want to have
one much more than a Jackal.

I agree that the Jackal is close but if you put these bikes side by side and
had them listed at the same price...with the same warranty my bet is that
the retro Eldo would sell first.

I would love to see your bike. If you send the pic to Dave he'll post it and
we can all admire your machine.


 making it happen for me. Also, the Jackal is coming closer to what I think
people who want a retro bike would buy. I would have bought one but had
already bought an eldo to restore when it came out.
