Alan, nice collection there. I don't remember seeing any bikes other than locals tiddlers, dad's 305 was the biggest I remember on the streets, however, I have a lot of 8mm movie film he shot including more than a few of the Japanese and Americans racing on the closed airfield and also scrambling in another area. I plan to pull out the projector and see if it works one of these days then will consider transfering the 8mm to dvd after a preview.
My taste in bikes is all over the map too, the only ones I don't like are the ones I've sold and I wish I hadn't sold any of them. My first new "big" bike was a '67 CL77 which was truly my freedom machine and liberated me from waiting for the school bus, it became my backup to a much loved '66 Triumph T120 that I rode my junior & senior yr. of high school and still have but it is awaiting a long overdue reassembly back to stock, which it never was while we were young...Mark
