All my friends had dirtbikes and I juuust about bit it trying to hang. Thank goodness for full face helmets! If my folks only knew... whew. Why I don't ride now. They were great bikes for a kid who drank from the water hose and got spanked if'n he didn't mind his elders. Dad had a BMW 550 back then. Those had something to keep your feet warm but I wasn't big enough to work the clutch yet dammit.
The cars were just the best I could do with what was available, and still are. Never had one under ten years old, can't seem to make it past that lol. Too late now, don't want drive by wire ever.
Heres some footage of yesterday at launch when me and Grape was out playing-
And another cool old thing, Dad's Clinton D55
