    newbie

    Im new here an old fart of 55 started on a honda 50 when they were capable of 45 mph (downhill) when I was 15. Came off it 6 times in the first year, did not have to wear helmets then, must have had some brain damage as Im still riding motorcycles. My bikes in order: Honda Cub, Jawa175, BSA Goldflash, Zundapp Bella, Mathchless 350 , Triumph Thunderbird, BSA Super Rocket, Yamaha DS7, Yamaha RD350, (I was lucky the helmet laws were in as I was riding the RD, thats the only bike I really got hurt on), Kawasaki 440, Honda Benley,Yamaha 250 Scooter, Yamaha 250 bike, Honda nv750 custom and now my present bike, a Suzuki Savage. Sorry for the long intro.

    Gidday & welcome,

    I don't suppose you're one of those guys who stores old bikes (parts mainly) under his house for years on end are you? I know a few that do...

    Welcome Deebeeriz - I had a couple of Bella's,although I never got them going.Sold them to a scooter freak for next to nothing,but at least they went to a good home.What a well built scooter they were eh?

    So did you see the one on the cover of Bike Mart going for $3000?
