It would be a real challenge for me to get a leg over that motorcycle equipped as you have it?

Being old, short, fat and out of shape doesn't help but even at my best????

I get on one of two ways....jump my leg through between tank and tail bag, or step on left foot peg, stand up, and swing my leg over tail bag to right side foot peg, then sit down.

Hey Pardner...get that arm back in that sling! I bought a 73 RD 350 new in 1973. Exciting bike. My wife and I rode it all the way to Tennessee and back. Sold it to buy a TX 650. Anyhow saw one a few years ago, and they are TINY. Can't believe we rode 2 up on it lol. Of course my wife and I were closer to tiny ourselves back then.

I used to ride double on a 50cc Honda Cub back in the day. A big bike back then had 300cc . I loved the original Yamaha 305 big bear twin. Brother had a 180cc yamaha. Never see them. Haven't even seen one in a museum.
