1975 Honda ST 90
Photos: 5
Info: Made 3 years only, 1973-1975. Basicly a Honda 90 engine in a Honda 70 frame. A street legal 90, gets about 95mpg. 3 speed tranny is a big minus, Honda should have used the 4 speed from the CT90 or CT200. Getting kind of rare, if you ever see one for sale. don´t pass it up. Mine is pictured with a cherry condition 1979 CT90, last year for the 89cc I believe.

1982 Honda XL 500
Photos: 30
Info: 1 year only model, has some 1 year only parts(head for 1), so be careful when wrenchin´. That said, it´s the first year for Prolink suspension in the 500 series, and single carb gets approx. 60 mpg around town. Currently 18K on odometer. KZ900 headlight w/H4 silverstar is awesome. Have updated with Supertrapp(14 discs) and jetting. Fixed upper end, oil leak from old head gasket and cam cover.

1973 Suzuki TS 185
Photos: 1
Purchased: Apr 1973
Sold: Aug 1980
Info: My first street legal dual-sport. Had the crank stuffed, head decked, and bored 3cc over to 186 with expansion chamber and Snuf-R-Not. Loved this 2 smoke. Wheelie''d easily thru first 3 gears, and bounced up in 4th. Notice the straight rear fender has come back into style on current dual-sport machines. Only took Honda 10 years to catch onto Suzuki''s idea.

1970 Honda CT 70
Photos: 3
Purchased: Apr 1970
Sold: Jun 1972
Info: First bike I bought new, made payments thanks to parents co-sign, and paper-route. Flogged it relentlessly to keep up with buddies CT90''s and Yamaha 125''s. Traded it off for a CL160. What a mistake.
