anyone know of a date?  I want the 1969-70 version, the first bike,
not the "F" that everyone else seems to have out now....
not that I can afford to buy it, though.

wuz just 12 at the time and I was just discovering machines (and other
things) got my dad to take me to the local Honda shop and begged for
the SL 70 and that little off road bike, the name escapes me.... with
those big knobby tires...

maybe I'll hunt around for a die cast...

thx all - Craig

those 1960's bikes look a lot more intriguing to me, Triumph, BMW,
etc...

Never did ride a bike, just like how they look.......

there were trail 70's, 90's and 100's. you mean the step
through type frame and the hi/lo drive switch? originally
the trail 90. in low gear, they will go up anywhere they get
traction. ride the dirt all day, flip the lever and hit 50
mph to get home. on a pint of gas.

first was the 90 with a manual 2 sprocket set-up for hi/low
gear range. then honda made it tranny switched, a lot less
work.
the 70 was issued in there, some models had low/hi selector.
they are awesome little bikes that will go anywhere. they
are a blast to ride.

Lotta reminiscing, but no answer to the original question - nice!  So
I figured that I'll contribute a comment to this useless (so far)
thread. :-)
