Hi Jerry, yes it is here in Ohio. When I bought it new in 1972, I got a title with it. In Ohio, all you need is a title, plates, lights, with dimming head light, and stop light on the tail light, horn, and rear view mirror. I now have a historical plate on it. My top speed is a little over 42mph, and it only has 4hp, so you could never go on a interstate or freeway. It sat in my basement from 82, till last summer when I cleaned it all up, and replaced parts. It runs like a fine watch.

Ronnie, I don't remember what those sold new for but you might be shocked to see what one in the condition of yours with paperwork, one owner brings.

Here's a shot of our drummer (Lonnie Godfrey) on his Harley and another shot of him with my Royal Star in front which is appropriate as that's where his always is when we go riding. It was a beautiful overcast day today so I took these when we stopped at the 7-11 for a cool drink.........JH in Va.

My getaway bike. Scares the s%&t out of me sometimes, usually when I'm north of a 145... and that's miles not kilometers.

I rode that for 2 years, kept the rubber side down always, what was not an easy task by-the-way and survived. Sold, converted it to a ZumSteel D10. Good decision. :\

This was taken in Monument Valley on the border of Utah and Arizona where many of the John Wayne westerns were filmed. It was a bit chilly that day.

I apologize if I posted this before, but I thought it was appropriate for this thread. I'm sure you can recognize Speedy West in the rear (on the left side of the picture), and my Dad is the one on the right. The picture was taken in about 1951 in Van Nuys, CA. Speedy and his family were neighbors of ours.

Notice the "Dickfer" mod, to push my little butt up, so I can reach the breaks and gear shift.
I wrote the tab for this one... Pretty easy on gas.
