I had a couple of buddies on college that had 700S's and I would ride on the back. Then later I had the opportunity to buy an 83 650 (my first bike). I rode it for a few years and sold it after my son was born. Just last year I got a great deal on a mint 84 650 and I couldn't pass it up. It's the perfect bike...
