Generally I bought motorcycles first thing in the spring and my
birthday is in mid June so that was probably the case.

But, technically, I was still underage when I signed the papers
and that remains the case for the life of the loan..

He was pretty good about things. He always said that if I couldn't
make a payment for some reason to call him and he'd keep it from
causing me any problem. That happened twice I think .. Once when
a was payment due I and blew the tranny in my car sort of thing..
