Mine didn't look this good but I had one of these for a first bike...couldn't set both feet on the ground at stop lights.

I rode that thing until it was puking oil out the exhaust and then I rode it a bit more.

I think this was my third scooter..a 1970 Honda CB450. I think Harley Davidson stole my idea and created the Street Bob from it!!! Can't really remember ever being that young!!

Yeah...I was about 27 years old there. That photo was taken in May, 1972, at Forrestal Village in Great Lakes. I was a Chief in the Navy and worked a part time job as a janitor at a local Junior College from 10PM at night til 2AM in the morning to get the money to buy that little scooter. I rode it from North Chicago to Gallipolis, Ohio....wide friggin' open most of the time..and melted the tops out of both pistons. She'd run about 70mph, wide open, down hill!!!
