Actually angrystroker my old 1972 Honda 750 was bullet proof. I guess you don't see em around because they weren't imported here until I believe the late 50's early sixties. Don't get me wrong, I love Indians, Harley's, Triumphs, Norton's, BSA's, Ducati's etc.. as well. But you would have been hard pressed in 1969 to beat a honda 750 for it's design and performance.
