First XR (75)...Rio Bravo, Texas. I was 12 years old, just saw Marty Smith at the Astrodome sporting #12. I mowed lawns to earn the $$$, dad paid what was left to buy her. I brought her home on a Tuesday, tore the top end open Wednesday, had a buddies mom take us to Pasadena Honda and grabbed new valve seals, installed them Friday and loaded her up Saturday morning and this was the maiden voyage. Dad snapped a pic...Been hooked ever since. 70 or more bikes later, still riding the Honda Thumpers. Lifelong love affair!!!
One in the same.Sad news, if the Wattner here is the same as on ADVRider- died of a heart attack.
Sad news about Wattner
Something has been knawing at me as to what is different on this new XR. OK White Paint it obvious, old style graphics too.
