My first year of college was $340

To borrow a thought from the British comic, Dennis Norden, you know you're getting old when you start every other sentence with: "Back in my day..." and finish it with: "...and that was a lot of money back then!"
So in that vein: I bought a Kawasaki Z650 C3, in blue, in May 1980. My first brand new bike and probably the best bike I ever owned. It cost £900 and some change. I'd happily pay ten times that for one today if Kawasaki put it back into production.
