This is the newest to me of my old bikes. It's a '71 R75/5. My dad bought it from a female friend of mine. She's now dead. Dad wrecked it and gave it up so I keep it in my shed and ride it every once in a while. That is a small /6 tank, a solo seat and R90S gaiters. The shocks are from like the parts unlimited catalog. they used to be on a LWB so they are too long. It's like a hard tail even with zero preload. I kind of like the US bars on it. I want to geek it all up into one of those quasi scrambler things one day.
This is my middle child. late late late '73 R75/5. It has R90 slugs and jugs, and most of the good parts from my '74 (stator, tranny, carbs). It has a boyer too I think, but I haven't touched it in ten years. I rode it to daytona for trailer week with 2 miles on a top end in like 2001 or something. Didn't ride hardly at all the rest of that year. 17 hours on a 30 year old seat will do that. Too nice for me. I want to put it back to stock and wrap it in plastic for future generations of boocephi. The paint is really bad, but it's all there in perfect, unrestored splendor underneath the leaked oil and road grime.
