Wow this is a fun thread! Nice to see what everyone started off on. Getting some big smiles and good laughs from me.
This is my 1987 Kawasaki Ninja 1000. My husband found her up in Yosemite for 1400.00. Guy put 1300 miles on her back when he bought it brand new, parked it in the garage under a sheet and there she sat for 17 years till we came along. Bike needed carbs done but other then that she ran GREAT. STILL HAD ORIGINAL TIRES (We replaced of course) Was still in showroom condition till I dropped her in a parking lot (learning). I was really upset but like my husband said, "we got the bike for you to learn on, better you drop this bike then the one you really want." (I wanted a Busa)

What a time machine that is.......way back....Ninja 1000r....neato !
I gotta break out some of my older bros pics along with his friends.
He is 5yrs older and rode in one of the first biker gangs in Nashville..
They all had Eddie Lawson Z1Rs , KZ1000s, and some of the First Katanas.
I can still hear them running down our street at 120+ , all 20 of them, all with open Kerkers at 2 am in da morn' !
Thanks everyone for making this a fun thread....I thought it may be a good idea...

You know how much crappola I took from my friends when I used to show up with that yeller lid !
Non-Us GPZ400 super nice bike.....Close competitor to my RZ350 !
I also remember Suzi made the RG500 Gamma two stroke...no US sales for it as well. That was a screamer !

Frist bike. 1989 750 Katana. Had it for 5 years. I originally wanted a 1998 to 2001 VFR800 but couldn't afford it. Was Still a great bike. Never had a problem with it.
Not a pic of mine, but was exactly the same.
