not new to bikes but I just found my elusive BS200 Mark II SS,,I grew up next door to a Bridgestone dealer in the late 60s and at the age of 16, fell in LUST with a red Hurricane 175 hahahahhaa..
I wrote a short story for WALNECKS magazine mid 90s.. and they published it.. ill try to find a link..
Anyway i got a 71 gold SS200 that kicks freely and has decent compression!!
pics to follow, but it may be a while before I get
much accomplished hahaha I'm 70 , old and cold
