My High School Bike

[MrYeats]

This is not it exactly but I rode a 1960 BSA Thunderbolt with chrome tank.
This pic brought back tons of memories. We actually used International Harvester Points one time that worked fine!

The bike in the pic is a Lightning. The Thunderbolt had one carb.

That's one heck of sweet bike.In high school I bought my first car and never even thought about motorcycles.I was locked in a warp just getting high sex,drugs and rock & Roll.

Being a lead guitarist, I resemble that remark!

Here is the bike I rode in high school. Don't laugh, I was really glad to have it.

heres mine terrible build, but not a bad paint job for a 14 year old's first attempt with a rattle can if I may say so myself

the elongated forks were an absolute danger to the rider since I basically just pulled the stock ones apart from each other.. changed them back pretty soon after this pic

Those are some realy cool moped cycles if I ever saw any.All I had was a swyin ten speed.I got a lot of miles out of that peddle bike.

Never had the funds in high school but, shortly thereafter, I did have one of these:
