A simpler time 1971
« on: July 15, 2007, 07:53:16 PM »
I know this is a Honda site but I came across this ad in EBay.

When I was 14 and living in Rome Italy (my father worked at the U.S. Embassy) a Moto Morini like this (but w/ clip-ons & all the missing parts intact) was my 1st bike.  It was fast, good looking, and the love of my life.  Good memories running loose in Rome w/ someone's daughter on the back and this looker between my legs.  I am not complaining too much - life is good now but it was funner and so much simpler back then.
