First big bike (for those days) was a new GT380J in April 1973.
Love to pick up a classic one......mine was identical to this!
First big bike (by today's standards) was a GT750 in March 1976.
Here's me on the right in Babbacombe, Torquay in the long, hot Summer of 76.

Could have been a nice week touring the south of England if I hadn't had my miserable first wife with me!
