Ern....on another note, that bike sold more (worldwide) than total bikes made by a lot of other bike makers.

You are not known for making mistakes so I have to take my chances when they come.

I know, payback is a whatcha-macall-it.

Still at it, but I don't take my helmet off for pics these days..

Hey Ern....
Went back to Hansed Dam yesterday and got in a 75 miler (pavement) on a 68 TR6Triumph with a bunch of vintage bikes. A close friend loaned me the bike below.
It was a hoot.

Hey Char....lookee here.

California street legal.

Man, y'all had it rough.

I got to start out on one of these beauties, in 1966.

Style, handling and state of the art, hi-tech suspension...what a machine! I could barely reach the footpegs so I had to start it, rev it up and rock it offa' the centerstand to get going. Stopping was tricky, timing was everything...I had to stop next to a tree or fence and let it fall over against it, so I could get off.
