Falling off doesn't hurt, it's the sudden stop that does the damage.

Mine started life like this but buy the time I got it , it was bare bones with all the road gear removed, I new bugger all about MCs at the time , it was hard to start but once going it was great fun, on a bike you did not have to pedal. Will

This was my first bike,a Suzuki TS90 brought her when I was 16. Can't remember what year she was maybe late 60's early 70's.
Cost me $100 and I had to earn the money my self.
Note the modified rear suspension. which was done much later,after I had handed the bike down to my little brother.
Check the brick under the stand that's a Suzuki performance part.
