I had one of those ('73 orange) and used to ride it to restaurant I worked at. One evening some punks stole it, couldn't start it so threw it off a pier into 18' of Pacific. Broke my heart.
Why it should break your heart? you could buy another one! even a brand new one! I remember in those days Yamaha and Suzuki had the two stroke 80cc which were faster and most of the kids preferred them because Honda 70 was slower!
My first bike was a 72 sl 70 road it every day, loved it, and would like to have another one!
Love simple carbureted bike from the 70's. I have all the computer infested stuff now. I like simple.
