Apparently a haircut was out of your budget as well. :D
My first bike was a 1971 Suzuki TS185. It was a lot of fun too... as anything with two wheels is.

I had a Suzuki TS 400 those TS :thumbsup: bikes could walk the front tire in several gears :thumbsup:

TBGO - WTF!!!

AWESOME looking outcome! I had to go back and look at her in the original black... and she was freaking georgous then!

Wowsers that came out great... :thumbsup: I'd be afraid to ride it.

:) Thanks for posting!

Excellent Beep, that scoot needs to be in magazines. did you paint that yourself?

Thanks BEF :) I had a guy here in Houston do the work...typical painter - took awhile, but great work.

Is that a hard-tail?

No, soft-tail. It looks like a hard-tail, though...the break in the swing-arm on both sides is hard to see. You can see it in the first pic to the right and below the primary.

I also meant to say looks like you need to start on her project. Maybe an 883? She looks ready to cruise beside her dad.

I must be getting old... difficult finding motorcycle pics, these days.

Gonna have to fix that!

Never had anything like that very nice ground pounder, but we put quite a few miles on a kick starter around here. It rubbed off on the kids...

Soon as our youngest learned to start the lawnmower, he was all over town earnin' a buck.

A few years back, when he was 13, he bought this one. It was his 4th. Not sure what the count is now...
I was pleased when it took him a while to get this one running. ;D
Happier when he sold it!

Excellent pics guys!

Jones, I have a picture (someplace) of my old '74 Kawi 440 that has the same colors as your two there... it woulda fit right in. :)

Marc... that awesome! Nice to see you in a helmet... :thumbsup:

Anyone have some great trip pictures? I rode solo from Great Falls, Montana to Harrisburg, Pennsylvania a few years back...

Here are some of those pics... I didnt get ALL the state signs, but I got a few of 'em.
