Motorbikes are probably more bike than motorcycle. Lighter, kind of a bike with a motor added. Compared today's scooter way underpowered, but they use to be the cheap way to go. I like them because my first motorcycle, a Suzuki 50 in 1967, was probably more motorbike than motorcycle.
If you're going to be different, might as well go the whole way. Boring colors need not apply. I think this color is called "baby blue".
No young person today has the guts to stand out with this color. The world a 150 years ago was a drap place until modern chemistry gave us all the colors of the rainbow and some more. I think that flowers were more important in older times because they were one of the only sources of colors. Nowadays young people can't handle color they like to dress in the dull blacks, greys, ... how boring!
It's hard to recognize the make of motorbikes because the engine is usually covered.
We as a nation were all smaller 50 years ago, but the size of the engine shows how big we have become. How could this old machine every been sufficient?
More bike than motorbike. I estimate more than 50 years old. Flat rear tire, not too many white wall motorbike tires still around.
That is really nice to hear. thank you for the update and good luck. motorcycle tours
