While I'm at it, here's my first real bike (after having two minibikes)
This was purchased new by my friend, who promptly broke his leg in football practice before ever getting to ride it . . . his mom made him sell it . . . and yours truly was all over it.
My dad was cool, he loved adventure riding and would set me on the tank of the big bear we would ride for hours, ignited a passion in me that never went away
I recognize the first picture from "Vanishing Point remake" the clip from it is posted in the 1975 DT250B Section. I had not seen the 1978 DT400E picture before.

This is Devins first bike .... I think it qualifies as a very cool picture . . . . pun intended! 😄

Found another. Probably the same bike. Looks a bit more used.
