Yep - me too. Had 4 gears I think...no clutch. Was definitely a fun little bike. I remember I could hold down the shifter and rev it a little in 1st gear then lift my foot from the shifter and it would pop into gear helping me pop a wheelie. Haha...I was 7 yrs old at the time.

1st street bike was a 1979 Harley Ironhead. Bought that when I was in my early 20s...about 11-12 years ago. Hated that dang thing with a passion but I had to have a Harley so I bought what I could afford. Sold it soon after and got an evo Sportster.

Not my pic.

Cool picture, the sign in the background, "Saddleback Park" brings back a lot of memories. That used to be in So. Cal, the 1st MX course I ever rode. It has been gone for probably 30 years now.
