Have you ever gone back to places that you knew as a toddler,
how much smaller they seem than you remember?
My 2nd bike (after a Honda S-90) was a '69 BSA Thunderbolt.
I was just out of school and at the time I thought of it
as a "big" bike, but this picture makes it seem almost tiny.
Strange how memory plays tricks.

Ahhh, the days when you could see daylight in front and behind the
engine. Does look tiny. Here's the Yamaha English twin. Less daylight.
It's the sound!!
