1987 Honda Elite 250, This little bad boy will rip though the gears...no, wait...it's automatic.
Anyway, it goes about as fast as I care to go and keeps up with traffic.

 
My new 1968 CB450.

I wasn't familiar with this brand, but Wikipedia came to the rescue. A beauty. 14th St, WDC.

^ The definitive "Cafe Racer", I had a Domi 99 years ago, and couldn't care less whether it worked or not, it's sheer mechanicalness was enough to justify having it. Peter

This was a dream bike for many a Jr. High boy back in "64", myself included. A friend (Tony) owned one & I'd save up my lunch money for the week just to drive it home from school, with Tony securely on back of course. :cool: Thought I was on top of the world!

It was for me; it is hard to imagine now. I never got one, but did end up with an ill-fated Trail 90 that would never work reliably for some reason.

My neighbor talks about putting this one back on the road, but I've been hearing that off and on now for many years. I kind of like it where it is now. I've only seen it twice, but know it is there waiting for its time.
 
Keith, aren't those levers (shift and brake) sticking out a bit far?
