Honda - 250cc model K4

In the history of Honda, I'd say 1972 was a very good year. In the old gold/black colour scheme, Honda brought out a 250 K4, a bike that packed quite a lot of power for it's cc's.

After finnishing with school in 76 I got my first legal moped, (that was a hot year !) and learned a bit about driving on the road. At 17 I was finaly old enough to ride a 250.
