Die Stahlreiter vom Hauenstein

[Django]

A Swiss member of the German language CB1100 forum posted these impressions from a motorcycle regular gathering. It's a report from SRF (Swiss television) from the early 70's.

I guess you'll like it.

The gathering still exists every Thursday.

Hm, moderators, I wonder, if I better had this posted to the `Other Bikes' rubric?

Btw. there is only a little bit spoken German at the beginning and the end, most of the movie is just impression and sound of the bikes. Enjoy.

Not before MY time lol. My favorite period in motorcycling.CB's RD's XS's, GT's, R75's, .. I had nearly all of them at one time or another. WHen that CB 750 with the tank bag rolled in at the beginning of the film I let out an involuntary gasp. That was cool.

Thanks Django. Was finally able to watch it. Some old favorites and some sweet exhaust music. I kinda miss two strokes.

I do wish Honda had put 4 pipes on the CB1100. For me, anyway, there's something really evocative about the rear view of the early CB750. "This thing's got 4 cylinders," it screamed.

Indeed, the director did a number of interesting rear view shots.
