You and me about the same age. Back in early 70's hot bike was 650 bonneville, (I had a modded one), 750 four Honda, then along came the Kawa Mach III (bike you mentioned I'm thinking) and it was top dog for a while.

I've never grown up. I now ride a 1050 3cyl Triumph Speed Triple w 131 rr wheel hp stock. Hit a deer last year at 55 mph w out touching the brakes. Was able to stay up but bike took a lot of damage. Old guys can still have fun too.
