Started in Tokyo in 1967 with a 305cc CL 77 scrambler and replaced it with a
68 350 I shipped to the States. Remember seeing the CB 750 for the 1st time
in Dec 68 at the Tokyo motorshow -- a real show stopped and amazing for the
time.
1970 CB 750 (cost less than the Triumph Bonneville I had before which was
stolen by a bunch of local thugs -- Harley riders)
1973 CB 750
1978 750F -- a shared experience I see and also my last motorcycle.
1989 Civic
1990 Integra
1992 Accord LX 5 spd
1999 Accord LX 5 spd
1999 Accord EX auto (wife's)
2001 Prelude
2003 Pilot (wife's)
2006 Accord coupe I4 auto
own?
