Can anyone give me some information about the history of this R69s
I just recently purchased an 1965 R69s and I am interested to learn if anybody knows some of the history of this motorcycle. I've attached a picture. Other information I know is that the title shows it was owned by Novak Kinitec who lived in Newberyport MA. Serial number 659942. It has relatively low mileage is unrestored but has been maintained. I suspect club members will recognize the owner or the bike any information would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Hunt
