My parents forbid me to own a motorcycle, so piece by piece, I collected and hid parts in crawlspace under the house! Eventually, I had enough to build a complete bike, brought the parts out and assembled them, while my parents were out of town for a week...and rode for the first time! When parents got home, they were mildly pissed, but also impressed. I was able to keep the bike! That was 1972. Big MikeBig Mikenoreply@blogger.com
