I guess I'm the 'owner'.  ???

I wonder if the Yamaha xs750 ad influenced me to buy one. Doubt it as I just like the way it rode.

My brother had a Puch, sold by Sears in the 1960s as "Allstate" bikes in 106cc and 124cc sizes. He had the smaller one. We called it "the Pudd".  ::)

I'm doing another sort out of old magazines and came across this ad from Cycle, June 1981. I wonder how the overtones would be accepted today?

My first wife and I posed for that ad...
