Welcome to the forum Grateful_Rider [sm=icon_rock.gif] I was in the boat have not had a trail bike since the 70's Lots of good guys in here Enjoy[sm=welcomesign.gif]

 

Sounds familiar doesn't it. I mean old guys getting back into riding after all these years? I still think this bike will end up being one of the all time best sellers for Dual Sports. Keep up the great work guys.

 

Thanks All


Now thats over I'm going to enjoy the bike and if it can give as much fun as my little harley 125 that I had as a kid I will have a smile on my face again. I put over 7000 mile on that bike from 1968 to late 1972. My dad said that he would show me how to ride it. In the next 3 minutes all I saw was my dad's hands over his shoulders running holding on to it. When he brought it back to me he said "maybe you should learn yourself" put on the kick stand and went in to the house. Muttering to himself I did hear any thing and he never told me what he said either. It is still in one piece and this winter I have a project.

thanks for the welcome

Here's a photo of the Harley you're talkin' about, right? I was always hanging around my dad's friend who had one when I was a pesky teenager ... my how times have changed (I'm talking bikes, now ... I'm still as pesky as ever!)

I bet Deej could make that thing look good as new.

 

I bet we could buff that out.

 

I think it looks like this. It was just black and silver. I think the one you showed is newer than mine I think. They were made until 76? Did you every ride it? Like I said a little LTC and it should look like new. My youngest son has claimed it for his son thats 4 generation that could ride it. No pressure to get it running. The link below should get you to web site just look for pictures after getting in.
