Old Skool ?......I think so !

Here are a few bikes from way back when that paved the way to the bikes we ride today. I seriously doubt you would ever see these bikes over at the endless-sphere as these ain't electrics.

These bike's range from 1947 to 1949. I really like the Moto Guzzi 65cc and the Honda 100cc.......note the rear exit exhaust on the Honda.

There was a old Harley 2-stroker at the Edelbrock car show, I wish I had a picture of it.

Wasn't that the 'Hummer'?
Interesting trivia about that name. Harley had a contest for their dealers and whoever of them sold the most bikes in a year got a new model bike named after him. The guy who won had the last name of 'Hummer'. It had nothing to do with the sound the bike made.

Was it the old Baja 100 or the 250cc......or something much older? Those Harley's I mentioned were 2-strokes from Italy.....the engines anyway.

Man, I wish one of my grandfathers had a Honda dream.......my dads father worked for Ford, only Ford dreams there. My moms dad was from Finland and was a welder for the US Navy, no chance of a Honda dream there lol. He did have good exposer to radiation in the South Pacific however, without a Honda dream.

That was a cool looking old bike, I wonder how many are still around?
