My first bike was a BSA gold flash, think for memory it was about a 500 closely followed by a Matcheless, can't even
remember how to spell them, would have killed for a Trumpy bonoville. I had several bikes the last being a Honda 500/4.
Had about 20 trail and a couple of trials bikes 4 stroke and 2 stroke, Yammies, Hondas, KTM's Kwakas. Almost killed
myself several times doing stupid things.
My mate still keeps a couple of 70's RM 250's and a couple Yam's an old DT 360 and one of MY Honda 4 strokes.

I was an original member of the Comanchero M C in 1966 through to 1970 when I got married and
settled down to a normal life.

I had a Honda 90 sports model with plastic mudguards, that was a fun bike.
A couple of 250 Yamahas (yds3 & yds5e) and a moped that was as big & heavy as the 250s.
Nearly bought a 3 cyl Kawasaki 500, dodged a bullet there. Phew!
