Yep
He did if I am correct. They belonged to my friend Sam Rogers in Niceville FL. He is no longer able to ride at 76 and sold all of his 2 strokes to one guy supposedly from Texas. Maybe he had the buyer location wrong
I have worked on and rode the 75. The white framed bike was supposed to be some kind of flat tracker replica that was never completed. The 75 is all stock other than the pipes. It did not have the correct J&R head pipes. It ran pretty well. It would make a decent rider if the tank was cleaned up and the usual stuff gone through from setting for 2 or 3 years. Again I can't be certain but I think I am.

all 3 are great. the 1975 would be a great project to restore to stock.
