First ride was an early 70's Sears mini-bike. First bike was a brand new Honda XL-75 that my father bought me for getting good grades when I graduated 6th grade. Bought it at Elmhurst Honda in Elmhurst, IL. for $600.00! I was one happy & lucky boy!

First dirt bike was a Honda XR75.

I think the first street bike was a CB360.

A mid 1960's era Honda 90 c.c. scooter. Had this really funky semi automatic 3 speed transmission. Not unlike the bikes with heel shifters- but there was no clutch, it must have had some type of automatic clutch so you could sit still in gear with the motor running. Kick start only, and ran off a teency 6V battery.
