Yesterday, a bunch of friends from our vintage club and I rode about 80 miles to see some vintage bikes a group from northern Mississippi were bringing to show. We met at a chicken wings place about halfway between the two groups on a dreary November day. I didn't know what to expect, but wow! - those guys brought some primo bikes and lined them up in a vacant parking lot across the street. Here are pics of most of the Honda twins that were there...unfortunately, my cell phone ran out of storage space.

Two motorcycle groups, chicken wing place, Cool bikes. Sounds like a great day.

You don't see those early dreams too often. Nice pics, thanks for sharing.

What! I am so sick of those things right now. I just got a 62 model on the road that had been stored since the early 80s because someone had worked on it, and am helping a friend restore a 1960 model. Rebuilding the rear shocks right now installing new seals and oil. Then I have a 1963 in parts I keep tripping over. And then there is the later models I have to deal with. On a good note however I am in the process of restoring a 1961 Yamaha YD3 (only around 800 to have been imported to the US), and a 1974 MZ TS-150, not many of them running around now.

Really!?, the one in the forth pic down?

Yep, that one is a 1954 Dream 4E - 220cc with a 3-speed transmission. Pretty rare...

No, have not seen many of them, but have seen them.

I hate bike shows, makes my riders look like crap.

They will be restored when I retire and passed on to my nephews for another 40 years or so.
