Mike's Bikes
Yamaha 60
What can I say...my first.
Yamaha 100 Trailmaster
Yamaha 100 Trailmaster, 1968: This is the same type of Bike that I bought from Ira Dahm, only mine was yellow.
Kawi 71
Kawi 71: That's me chanting to the sun god (actually pushing my hair back)and Bill Koppler playing god. Kurt Moseley clicked the camera. That's his MG in the back ground. Note the plastic pot plant next to my front wheel. This was shot on Serena St. in Linda Mar. Man, I miss those pants!!
Yamaha 180
Yamaha 180: As with all of my bikes, this one was especially fast. Note the custom-made chrome twin expansion chambers. I beat most of the big 350 Hondas of the day.
day.
Yamaha 500 Mack III
Yamaha 500 Mack III: It would turn 12.5 seconds out of the box. Never got any tickets on this one, they couldn't catch me. The front end wouldn't stay down. The older I get, the faster I was.
Honda 550-4
Honda 550-4: My tour bike. Gary Kellogg and I did an epic journey into WA state loaded down with back packs to climb in the Olympics. This bike was horribly slow but always reliable.
Honda V30
Honda V30: I loved this bike, and it was fast. Had the smoothest gear box that I ever felt. V4, an expensive way to build a motor. Man, wish I still had this one.
Honda CB 1400
Honda CB1400 This bike can out-handle most any bike on the road. It has gear-driven cams, 41 mm forks with big springs, carbs are jetted and breath completely freely, open pipes, red-lines at 13,500 rpm, wide sticky tires, radar detector, stops and turns on a dime and is my favorite color.
Honda 599 a.k.a. Hornet
Honda 599 a.k.a. Hornet: CBR F3 600cc engine, with power to spare. Only sold it when retiring and decided to downsize to a slightly smaller bike.
Kawasaki Z400
My current bike, 2019 Kawasaki Z400, my little therapy machine. I take this out at least once a week.
