Just when the highway straightened out for a mile
And I was thinkin' I'd just cruise for a while
A fork in the road brought a new episode
Don't you know...

Conform, go crazy, or ride a motorcycle...

I always enjoy strolling through the old bikes. Very cool, thanks for posting.

I had a 76 GL1000 back in the day, with an after market seat making it much more comfortable. Had the removable kick start lever that stored in the left side tank panel. Had to use that kicker a time or too as well, a handy option for sure. The false tank was actually a storage area, and housed much of the wiring.

Do you know what this bike is? It certainly is a strong contender for Most Hideous Springer Front End of the Year Award  :o

I don't get the "Ton Up" part.  Somebody clue me in.

In England the TON meant 100 MPH.
Going more than 100 MPH was going TON UP.

I was a "ton-up boy" in the 70's with my Triton cafe racer.
Still am, with my Valks

How does 100+ translate to Ton (Tonne?) . . . . 
I've been enlightened. I still don't get it. But I'll take your word for it.    ???
