'81, still 2 years before I took my 'O' Levels, would have been riding pillion on my father's Honda C50 :-)

In 1981 I had

A 1981 Yamaha XV1000 RH

A 1975 Honda GL 1000 with a DJP sidecar

A 1971 Yamaha YR5 (highly modified)

A 1980 Suzuki 1000 in a Moto Martin chassis

And for a car, a 1975 Mini Moke 1000

Within a year or so I also has a Z1300 Kawasaki.

I suppose it would be fair to mention my dog, who rode in the sidecar's boot too!

I would like to apologize to anyone I have NOT offended. Please be patient. I will get to you shortly.

1981? I still had one year left of high school, lol.

I'm waiting for Doc4216 to tell us she graduated potty training....

It's interesting the average age on this forum seems to be quite a bit younger than MOA members.

Sorry for the delayed answer, I was traveling for work.

Yes, I was somewhere in the early one stage but more likely heading in the terrible twos!

But, what were the notable achievements for Doc4216 in 1981??? I was giving you credit for Potty Training, but that seems to be in error.

Most likely just making it out alive from my two older (4&5 years older) siblings who loved to torture me.

But, as their likely elder care provider, or at least coordinator, you'll have the final word. The nice "home" with the well paid and attractive nursing staff or the "facility" with the tattooed orderlies?
