    Thanks to a recent post (kuddos to cgutz) I'm wondering how many original owners there are on the forums. Old and new pics would be cool to see. I'll repost (again) a few to start. I'll have to dig through some old pics and try to duplicate some more.

    Hope everyone enjoys!

    May 1983, shortly after purchasing.

    And this was from August of 2015.

    And one more from a slightly different angle, just for the heck of it.

    Along the top of the reply frame there is an square icon with an image of a mountain. Click that and you can link a photo fom a hosting site.
    6th post can have photos and links.

    I'm the original owner of a 1980 SR500. I was 20 at the time. Somewhere I have a picture of it above Devils Gulch, the canyon Jesse James made his famous jump.
