1966 Norton 750cc motorcycle ad - fast and furious, gentle and smooth

Fast and furious, gentle and smooth. Power to scorch the surface of a dirt track. Great rooster tails of rocks and dirt sent up as you turn 'er on. (All over those poor chaps behind you.) Roadholder teledraulic front fork guides you through the turn, absorbing bumps, precise and sure. Full width alloy hubs on the big brakes cool quicker, allaying fade. Have a checkered flag!

1966 Jawa single-cylinder motorcycle - "Simple, Isn't It?"

Simple, isn't it? You're looking at about the only moving parts in a single-cylinder Jawa. For its two-stroke design is based on simplicity - no timing gears, camshafts, push-rods, rocker arms, valves, valve springs nor valve guides to wear out. Just three moving parts here: a piston, rod and flywheel. (Well, there's four, if you really want to get technical and count the wrist-pin that joins the piston and conneting rod). Then there's a relative handful of bearings that support the crankshaft and connecting rod. But that's about all, so you're money and miles ahead with a Jawa... 1966 Jawa Single Cylinder Piston Rod Flywheel Motorcycle Ad available at www.DadsVintageAds.com CLICK THE PICTURE TO "BUY IT NOW"

1966 Hodaka Ace 90 motorcycle and Larry Yount - beat...but unbeaten

Beat...but unbeaten. This is the story that's being repeated time and time again in every muddy, snowy, dusty, rocky hill and gully across this Great Land of ours. Anywhere there are guys that live for the kick of competition and demand a well-engineered, quality lightweight motorcycle with the guts to take the rough stuff, you'll find these little "Giant-Eaters, the Hodaka Ace 90. The weary young rider above is Larry Yount of Kennewick, Washington, who has just won the under 125cc class of the Championship (AMS) Dry Creek Trial in the rugged hills of Washington. One look at Larry and his Hodaka and you'll know how rough the competition was. Congratulations Larry (we're sending you a new brake lever) PABATCO is all heart. Oh, by the way, Hodaka took seven of the top twelve positions in the Dry Creek Trial, Yakima, Wash., Nov. 28, 1965. 1966 Hodaka Ace 90 Larry Yount Kennewick Motorcycle Ad available at www.DadsVintageAds.com

1966 Ducati Cadet Vintage print ad - "Your own declaration of independence"

Your own declaratin of independence. Your own Ducati Cadet. A smart little two wheeler with a spanking red tank. It's not cute, like all those others. The Cadet is made in Italy, and isn't that where they invented taste? The Ducati Cadet has a fan cooled engine. So it doesn't heat up in heavy traffic. (Most lightweights don't have fan cooling.) The Cadet also has a 4 speed transmission. Foot shift, too. Dollar for dollar, one of the best buys in the entire two wheeler field. Ducati dash and reliability in a lightweight. It comes in two versions. 5 hp for junior riders. 8 1/2 hp, 65 mph for all you swingers. Both the same price. Both Ducatis. 1966 Ducati Cadet Motorcycle Ad available at www.DadsVintageAds.com CLICK THE PICTURE TO "BUY IT NOW"
