Ко мне обратился Richard Monson-Haefel создатель персонажа Steampunk Holmes (http://theclevermonkey.blogspot.com/2011/07/black-widow-gets-side-car.html ), с предложением использовать мой мотоцикл в его истории. Я с удовольствием согласился. Но когда он мне сказал, что собирается продавать мотоцикл через свою книгу, моему удовольствию не было предела.
