Right there with ya Rob.  I rode a '70 H1 (500cc) from '71 thur '75.  Mean 
motoscooter.  Scary the way the front wheel would sometimes "come up" all on 
it's own with no warning, I've got a few stories of that, lucky to still be 
here.  Loved the sound of those three Mikuni's opening up (full throttle 
under 7K), used to do it on purpose in underpasses just to hear the echo. 
WWWAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!

And so my love affair with Triples began..............
