Title: Can't go anywhere on these hooligans!
Post by: dgorms on July 28, 2021, 10:06:32 PM
Can't hardly take these out in public! Mostly gray haired guys telling me their stories from their youth. My kinda guys. They all recognize the Honda, but few know what the Yamaha is.

What you should see is how people chat him up in that work van. It's like riding around with Brad Pitt!

305cc CL77 or perhaps a rarer CL72 250.

Great motors but limited by stock 4 speed indirect trans.  I still have an NOS crank in its box for a CL77.

It's a 305, 1966. I traded a 63 fairlane for it in 1975 (I was 18), used it as my only transportation for 2 years. Traded for a 65 LeMans with a co-worker who kept it safe for 30 years, went through a divorce and offered it back to me! I'll probably keep it forever......................................................D
