In the very early days I owned a little
1969 Yamaha AS-1, a 125cc twin road bike.
(no photos) I did one camping trip on this to Burra, and sold it when I discovered girls and that a car was much more compatible with that discovery. In the mid 1970's I owned a
1948 BSA M21, a 600cc single side valve thumper. It was a lot of fun, and I would love to have it in the shed again.
(I can't find any photos)Yamaha XS650. I rebuilt this bike and rode ita round Tassie, Vic and plenty of local journeys.
Yamaha XJR1300 This was a fantastic bike... Good looking traditional style and really quick. This took me everywhere including Tassie, Snowy Mtns several times, and all through Vic. I broke it in Cairns while doing a big trip and after fixing it, traded it on my ST. I did around 80,000km on the XJR.
Honda ST1300 My ST took me all around OZ for a lot of miles in not too many years. Shillas now has it, and I am sure it will see plenty more of the countrty. This bike did me well for around 185,000km
