Same as now. Jeans and T shirt. And since most of my money went to chasing women, weed, and speed I rode Jap bikes mostly. Honda and Yamaha.

Mostly the same stuff here too... blue jeans, dark colored t-shirts, sweatshirt when its cool, Wolverine boots. The jeans are Wranglers now instead of Levi's - a bit more comfortable fit for the older guy. Had a Schott horsehide jacket I bought in 1970 from Steltzer H-D in Houston. Paid $100 for it back then. I think they're just a bit more than that now. Lost it a long time ago.

I have a Hein Gericke that I bought in the late 70's. I still wear it.

The hot chick at the dealership recently commented "Nice jacket. I like the vintage style". Thanks, I guess that makes me vintage.

36 years ago today I put on a Bates leather jacket in the morning, and had on hospital garb that night. I think the paramedics cut the jacket off of me.

1970 . . . Bell Bottom Levi's, a "T" Shirt, Waffle Stomper Boots, 3/4 Bell Helmet and a Leather Jacket of unknown origin, although it lasted me most of my life (it must have shrunk) and lives still with my nephew.
