Greetings,
Had Motorcycles up until I was 24 or so, Hodaka, then three Kawasaki's a 72 H-1 500,
a KZ400 twin, and KZ650 4Cyl. Got married and so went the bikes, and eventually so did the wife. 34 years later, I found Motorcycles again, and realized how much I enjoy them, riding them , working on them etc. The bike that brought me back to it (I had lusted over for some time before acting) 2007 Triumph Bonneville, black and white tuxedo paint. I love that bike!!! Bought it in spring 2013,,, since then, I have been buying Motorcycles, that I have admired but never owned, including the 74 TXa 650 I picked up this past weekend, I will really enjoy disassembling it this winter and bring it back to its original beauty. My current inventory,
2007 Triumph Bonneville T-100 Black
1975 Honda CB550K Four Cyl Orange
1979 Honda Trail CT90 Red (only 197 miles on it )
2007 Moto Guzzi Norge 1200GT Red
1974 Yamaha TXa 650 Cinnamon Brown (9k miles)
I think I'm really gonna like this Yamaha, love the way it sounds, and love the Britsh bike styling influence. Rode it a little yesterday,, feels so different from my other bikes!
