Some from the family photo album.
First pic, maybe 1975? I got to help Dad change a headlight on the 63.
Second pic, getting towards the cut off date I know, probably 1987, dropping my 83 XR 200RD off at the Bike shop. Upon a closer look at this pic I notice the coloured in letters on the whitewall tyre...I did that ages before this pic unbeknown to Dad...and the old man wasn't very happy about it either!
Third pic, Dads 70 Le Mans Sport (yes the sport on the rr qtr is missing). I'm guessing 80-82 judging by the way I look?
He took the rear valance off because he made a heavy duty towbar for it. Check the length of those exhaust tips he put on it! He didn't like the exhaust stains on the bumper, and I still remember the sound of them scraping on steep driveways.
