I sold mine in 2009 after 20 years (bugga) and am still regretting it. Picture is from the mid 90's, pottering down the Holwell rd, Tassie in the drizzle.

I have this R90S 3D poster in my washroom. Maybe one of you know where this came from? Duane? It's hard to see, but it has raised sections. Thinking it might be from a dealer when the R90 first came out?
