I recently found an old scrapbook of mine. I took those pics when I was 14-15 years old. Mostly Kodak instamatic, later with a Minolta.
Back then you had to build everything yourself. No shops at all.

Here we go. Moto Guzzi a gogo.

BMWs galore.

The Bloody Devils became later our local Hells Angels chapter...

This guy was a german popstar. He later sold the BMW and imported a real chopper - a long forked rigid Harley. He was god I tell ya.

He then changed the BMW to this. Must have seen the hard ride. 1970 I guess.

Great photos! Love the way chopper style was universal and just the motor changed according to country...
