Love that movie! I remember when it was being produced and wanted to see it so bad. Got to see it when I was stationed in Germany

at a Post Exchange Theater in 1972. What a thrill. I knew who all the riders were and all of the bikes.
Had so much fun riding, racing and climbing hills. I remember most of my crash's, endo's and my brother getting his bike stuck in a tree!
Started out on a Honda S-90 in 1966. I was thrilled to get it. Totaled it into the right rear quarter panel of a 1964 light Ford blue Mustang. Flew over the trunk missing the car. Landed on my head. Got a free ride to the emergency room and 19 stitches in my crown!
The insurance company bought me a 1968 Honda CL-175.
Traded it in on a 1969 Honda CB-350.
Bought a 125cc Penton in 1970.
Went into the Army 10 Feb 1971 which ended my racing career.
Now I have a clapped out 2003 Ninja 250 with 41,000 miles. Boy was it modern compared to my 350. First bike with disc brakes, water cooling, 4 valves per cylinder, dual overhead cams, electronic ignition, 14,000 rpm (CB-350 was 10,000 rpm), monoshock, sport fairing (had a Vetter touring fairing) and an oil filter!
The only old bike that I would really like to have is a four-piper CB-750 K2 model. My brother had 6 750's. One being the first F model with the big ugly bazooka for a exhaust pipe.
