This is the Condor……..and remember gun control means using both hands.
This is the late Bob Ross’s dirt bike. Note the oversized exhaust. “Ya can’t eat if ya can’t shit” was one of Bob’s sayings. This two cam could throttle wheelie in 2nd gear. Bob sort of inherited Eddy Ryan’s shop in Pedro. Bob renamed it Motorcycles Only. “We buy junk and sell fine used parts” was the motto. And yes, I do miss Bob. He was a great guy. And a terrific motorcycle mechanic.
I almost forgot.. Bob named this bike Hortense because he put ladies falsie cups on each side of the tanks as knee pads. There was a shortage of knee rubbers after the war and so he just used falsies. The bike got repainted and the falsies removed before this photo was taken in Tulare mid 1980’s.
