First ride
My first motorcycle after three mini bikes was a 1972 i think DT100
for about five years I beat it to death and it was there every morning asking for more. Then a 1971 all dirt 360 punched out to about 400 man that was a lot of power to do what I loved to do ride wheelies. After about three years 2nd gear went out and I sold it and decided to buy a street bike. My buddy had got a 79SF and he let
me ride it and then I knew what I was getting. I found a 1980 midnight
with 1200 miles on it at a dealer I took it for a ride and they asked
me to come into the office ther they told me why it had a 81 front
wheel on it. A guy had bought it there and was trying to out run the cops around a curve and went off he did not make it his wife brought it in to have them help her get rid of it the frame and engine and one side cover was ok so they put it back together and I bought it. I sold it three years later an bought wedding rings then about 1990 I ran on to another 1980 special for $1500 with a jammer I thought that would keep my front end down I was wrong
i kept it for a year and sold it. 2008 i bought a harley wide gliude
put money in it and in it and in it still not enough power so sold it and found the 79sf i have now from a 72 year old mans son that had got it in his dads will he said he would not ride it it had to much power he road harleys. So $1850 it was mine and is in my will to go to my son when the time comes. Xs11 forever !!!!! Buckmaster79.
