Ummm long time ago. maybe the title was issued as 1979. I remember him
riding it out in late 1978 as my son Louis IV was born in Oct, 1978 the reason I
had no extra $$ for a new bike. :-) and all the bike mags were from 1978 hype on new Honda, like now ................it's
2009 but we are looking at 2010 models now. All your bikes look mint Ron.
