Honda XL 100

1974-Honda XL100

Jim Webb was our neighbour in Green Road. We moved out there in 1971 – I was 10 years old. At some point my brother and I started helping with milkings and I was instantly drawn to their XL 100. I don’t know when I first noticed it. Jim’s son Graeme used to ride it to get the cows, and my younger brother had ridden it but I wasn’t allowed to because I only had one hand.  I think I remember one aborted attempt in their driveway.
