SteveD CB500K0:
Pah!
Just a kid.
How can you be only 40 and know stuff about 1970's bikes?
MIKE550/4:
me dad and a few uncles were into bikes and had a few, mainly hondas and and one triumph bonneville and if i remember a triton or trident ? was really young perhaps 8-9 , my earliest bike memory
Bryanj:
Triton--- Trident not much difference really, both leaked like a sieve and were not the most reliable----Ducks behind screen and awaits hurled bricks
MIKE550/4:
yeah :D, he did seem to spend more time fixing it than riding it, was a nice bike though when it was going, think it was a trident, hardly see any these days compared to hondas , or is that just me
always had the argument brit v jap , thats another topic though
matthewmosse:
Just a kid? ;D I'm 27 and remenber nothing of sohc hondas til I saw a pile of stripped engines languishing in someones shed, ended up with a very baskett case hardtail chop wiith a twisted frame and 3 or 4 dead engines none complete......... One way to learn what goes on in an engine ::)
