Apologies if this  has been posted before, but first time I've seen this photo of Mick Jagger on a CB350.

I remember Dick Emery was a bike rider/enthusiast owning few Hondas and a BMW.
But who remembers the lovely Twiggy riding a Honda Express pulling up and saying “You meet the nicest people on a Honda”   in a TV ad
Honda CB650Z
Honda F6C Valkyrie

Bucket of cold water for 750rideruk there, you may have majored on the fetish angle of leather clad Kiera there  ;D wholeheartedly agrre with it though, even without a Honda in there.

The van in background is apparently a BMC J4 of something like 1968 vintage,  that would agree more or less.
