[@ge0arc244]

This was my very first real bike back in 1989! God I miss her so much. Great vid great BIKE!

[@shotgun517]

Mine too man, I had it my Sr year of HS a little bit after the movie Purple Rain came out! It was fun taking chicks for a ride on it, man I miss it badly!

[@guldglubber8334]

Reno that thing is a gem! I got me one too! It's needing some work but all is about the same condition as yours here! Cheer's,and have fun safe riding!

[@daryldavis8848]

I have a 1980 CM400E. Still ride it

[@TheFloridaRider]

That's an awesome find, and even better that it might be your old bike. Perhaps when you register it the DMV can tell you. Enjoy it.

[@RenoNuski]

Thanks Unfortunately they were no help. There was a big gap in ownership and no records before 1998

[@Tigerfire75]

I knew of a guy that road one of those. Little remembered guy named Prince in a movie called Purple Rain.

[@bigcheeseman6570]

I have the same year same color but mine has different bars and air forks. Very nice bike and I was surprised by the highway capability

[@thebeastfromthesoutheast56]

Beautiful bike

[@tebeardenkahboom1]

You know DMV can tell you every registered owner of that bike and if you're one of them they can tell you that it was you. They can't tell you who the other people were but if you were one of the owners and it was registered to you then they will tell you

[@lewishoffman7955]

I have the identical bike! Even the same color!

[@DanaTheInsane]

Beautiful shape, Mine is such a rat. But they are so much fun to ride. Yours has the wrong handlebars and front turn signals though.

[@RenoNuski]

Yup swapped them out about a month after the video.

[@Gokumitsu9000]

this vid is rad =) keep em up Reno!

[@RenoNuski]

Thanks Hope school goes good for you this semester and Happy Birthday dude!

[@dinahwong3105]

Do you think this bike will fit someone who is 5'0-5'1?

[@d.4tay549]

How expensive are the repairs on the automatic diff? Are parts reasonably available?

[@RC62]

Very cool!

[@RenoNuski]

Thanks

[@MikeReed]

Now rhats the ride for me!

[@RenoNuski]

They are very fun little bikes

[@naruto4ev2868]

Do you think it's suitable for someone who is about 5'3 or 5'4?

[@RenoNuski]

Yes Definitely! It has a nice low seat height on the mid-sized frame.

[@ge0arc244]

I am 5'5" and it for me perfectly. Great for short folks and easy for new riders. Will do highway speeds also with ease. Love this thing.

[@theSMYRNAcowboy]

SO cool!

[@RenoNuski]

Really freaky for sure Dave Thanks Rode it to bike night and met up with a fellow on a 1971 Suzuki RE5 rotary bike.

[@lesn9125]

Nice bike Would you be interested in selling it?
