Forget the horse

  1. Astride a Honda SL350 during the time he was filming Big Jake, in Mexico.

    He took to the bike, and bought a brand new Honda SL350 later (Dec 1971)

    The one he owned is featured at https://silodrome.com/john-wayne-honda-sl350/

    The one used on set seems to have been lost to obscurity and time.

    1. Apparently the one he bought was red. The SL has a nice stance to it. I had a 70 CB350 in 73-74 and put a lot of miles on it.
