Wow! Does that bring back good memories! I bought one new in 1972 & rode it for 14 years. What a great bike! Super reliable too! Thanks for the video.
had a 71 extended forks custom pipes seat paint had it on lay away making payments at 16 years old. Had to wash dishes to pay for it over a year. Drove a 125 Suzuki through the freezing snow in Chicago to work with oven mits for gloves and cardboard taped to helmet shield. When year was up ready to get bike , dad found out you can get a motorcycle license at 16 but insurance law was 18 years old, couldnt get the bike. all my life has been getting whatever bike i want now
