Old Indian I had a CB750 4, first bike that ever actually scared me, and tis is one of those 'should've crashed 'instances
I was riding this old clapped out Triumph 650 (i forget the model, it was pretty crappy by the time i took ownership of it) and met this Triumph enthusiast at the fillin station one day
After some jawboning and hemming and hawing he got around to offering me his fairly pristine old CB, and money, for my ratty old trumpet
Can you say HELL YEAH?
on the way home a cager tried to change lanes into the opne I was in, and instinct took over
On my Trumpet, to get any fast acceleration at that speed I had to drop a gear, whack the throttle open and dump the clutch
Don't ever do that on a strong running CB 750 4
first and last time I ever did a wheelie on the street, and darn near crashed coming down (yup, i was still wet behind the ears)
