This goes wayyy back ,before there was touring motorcyles like the Goldwing , Bemmers and the only Dresser was an Electra Glide. I owned a Suzuki 750 "water buffalo" . I adapted a windjammer fairing and harley saddle bags to make it a touring bike . I needed some tunes tho 8) . so I fabricated brackets for a pair of kraco 6x9's in the fairing . No place for the 8 track player . So .... I mounted it facing backwards on the luggage rack at back of bike . Plugged in a "CCR" tape. and took off on a test drive . jammin along when suddenly player stopped . OH , end of tape i thought . then i remembered ........AUTO EJECT !! I looked in my mirror in time to see the tape sail out and hit the highway at 70 mph . Man there's a lot of tape in those things. :shock: :roll: :lol:

AHHHHHHHHH memories . I guess birds of a feather do flock together, I heard it on the grapevine ,down on the corner , with a bad moon rising.How many of you thought the song said there's a bathroom on the right.

That's pretty funny. I hope no one was behind you. Can an 8 track crack your window? :roll: Did it at least sound good?

I grew up listening to CCR. I'm pretty sure someone in my house had at least one CCR album on 8 track.
