Just bought a 1973 Tiger for under a grand ... no speedo so don't know how many miles... front caliper sticky and needs kit...fork seals weaping, started on the second kick after sitting a year. I registered it and rode it home today. Old times...good times. This bike has the stacked reverse megaphone exhausts and doesn't leak or smoke much at all. although I love my '03 guzzi california aluminum, this takes me back to a full head of hair and a 32 inch waist...woohoo

Lucky dog.

There's another guy on this same section with a '73 that's giving him fits. It all comes down to how well they were cared for from new.

...I've still got my hair, and 31" waist at 48 going on 49...

(of course it's getting gray, and the waist used to be 28)
