You know, I think that was my dad's B50 that he was on. I know at some point my dad had traded that out for a Ducati that he had painted the same color. So all these years looking at that photo, I assumed it was the Ducati. Buahahaha. Thanks for setting me straight after all these years. :p
 
My wife and I, 1969, bike is a 69 TR6R.
Still have the wife and have replaced the 69 TR6R with one the same a few years back.

Otherwise, that B/W looks straight out of a Lucky Jeans ad today. As for the modifications what made you want to install a cat?
 
Another taken in 1969, I'm second from left. First and third from left were both killed. I had a beer with two of the other three last mth.

The Triumph went in 1970 for the new CB750. Again my wife and I.

Went racing in the 70's. This is my wife on my pathetic first race bike, it's a YD Yam with TD2 kit. It chucked me down the track more often than got me to the finish line.

In 1974 I got myself a Ducati 750SS (Green Frame) and raced it for a few years in production class, while still doing race classes.

This 125 Yam was my favourite, I didn't own it but raced it for a bike builder.

Too many photos and too many memories.

My brother and I raced this 1000 Kawasaki. Among other things it had a Yoshimura 1100 kit and heaps more power than the frame could handle. Note the angle of the back wheel and the passenger grab rail hanging off after one of our frequent stacks
