I think it was a Yamaha street/dirt but I don't remember the model.

Second (and really the first real street bike) was a '83 Yamaha 750 Maxim

1969 Triumph Trophy 250 thumper. I rode this thing from the coast of Jersey to N.W. Ohio in 1973 at 17 years old. Took two days. F'n amal carbs . Not my pic.

Next was a 1972 Honda cb 750 that I rode from San Diego to the coast of Jersey in 1976 when I had 30 days leave from the service.
