I had a 72 Toaster, blue just like that with the short swing arm and later a 1974 R90S that I hot rodded and punched out and modded in every way good ole Reg Pridmore told me.  Love those bikes.  Wonderful motorcycles!

It's amazing how fast you can bend one of those things around a corner.  I learned to ride chasing Ducati's on the old /5 and outran em ALL on the /6.

Dude....you're not helping. lol thats one of hte bieks i wanna get. im willing to drop 1 grand on a decently make the beast with two backsed up one that runs. lol im thinking about a 60/5/6 or a 75/5/6. I got about $1500 bucks on me right now. If i cant find anything, then im probably going to get a compressor like i had planned and pick up that ContourHD helmet cam.
