Had to steal a pic from the net. It's identical. This thing is way older than I am but it gave me my first two wheel experience. Had the folding handle bars, once I started getting more confident and trying to jump it the bars would always fold down when I landed. Man I used to ride the **** out of it.

This is one like my first bike. I still have mine, which looks a whole lot better than this one. I bought it new in 1973. It is not running at the present time, but am hoping to be able to restore to like new condition. It is all original with no scratches in paint.

well damn man, I didn't know we could count those......I had a little Honda Trail 70 too! That thing was real reliable and real fun for a real long time when I was a kid.

1964 Honda 55 Trailbike. Had to manually change sprockets from street sprocket to 75 tooth trail sprocket. Required carrying an extra length of chain with a Master link. Extra chain was carried in the hollow swing-arm pivot.
