A delightfully strange machine - 348cc, only 1600 of them made.

Just lovely.

Great link.

Bill's gonna like this quirky little bike when he sees your thread.  You know how he gets about all the old bike threads...

Thanks!  :)

         Oh Yeah, I didn't know the specifics, but I'd seen pictures of these years ago. Not much on a lot of the newer bikes, so I just like to relive the memories of the older bikes. They all are part of the history, right? ??? If you really get to looking back at the older bikes, you'll find that there were quite a number of them at one time and over the years they just started folding (for one reason or another). In some ways, it's kinda sad :( but, in other ways, can you imagine how much harder it would be to decide which one(s) to get, if there were many more to select from?) Anyway, Thanks Dave, for posting yet another Classic Bike.
                                                       Later on, Bill :) ;)
