Here's the one I had back in the Day Not that long a Go 1979 :D

Very Nice!

My first bike is my 09 Springer.  Almost got one 21 years ago, but the owner totaled the bike the day before the deal was finalized.  Then life took over and I didn't revisit the idea until last year.

Not my first.....not even close.  Started on a mini bike, then a Tote Goat, Hodaka, blah, blah, blah.....don't even think I could remember them all when I was a kid.

This is a Pan/Shovel on a Harmon frame with a Harmon front end from the early 70s.

This was my very first bike.  Probably put about 20k miles on it in the pasture behind the house.  Wrecked it several times as well.  Now a friend of mine's son is riding it.

Life's journey is not to arrive safely at the grave in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out shouting Holy Chit......... What a Ride!

I used to race one of those in 1977, put a Hooker Header on it and still smoked the guys on the 80ccs... Nothin like a four stroke!

If you have a link like above, you can add [IMG) (/IMG]http://tags around it to show inline.  Use ] in place of where I put ).  Also on an IPad from time to time and never realized that either.
