Yes, I remember them. There is also a good article on them on the Jan./Feb. 2007 issue of "Motorcycle Classics".

Oh yeah and I've seen one while I was in Japan (76'-69').

Later on, Bill

Deffinitely enjoyed that Motorcycle Classics article.

My dad had a chance to buy a Marusho from his uncle when he was young, but didn't cause he knew he wouldn't be able to get parts for it to keep it running. Too bad he didn't know how much they'd be worth today. Gotta love that 50/50 hindsight.
