My First bike 1968 tr6r

When I was 20 I worked for a glass studio in east falls Philadelphia. On one of the many trips we made for supplies I saw a bike shoved into a corner of a warehouse and asked about it. I bought the bike for 100.00 bucks and spent 1,300.00 to get it to a rideable state. Put low bars and tank rack( not in the photo) and off I went. I was twenty seven and thought I was king of the world, or at least a duke. Pulled up to my friends machine shop with all the guys standing out side and revved the engine. the side cover fell off and the laughter still is echoing in my ears today.
