also would like to know what your first bike was ...what you learned on..im sure there will be some interesting starter bikes out there.

mine was a honda 125xl enduro my dad bought it from arkansas really cheap it didnt have a seat so we took some foam out of a small fold a seat( it was all the rage in the 80's) and ducked taped it to the seat frame lol it hurt like heck for a while untill it got wet and then formed a butt print into it then it was pretty comfy :laugh:
 
bad experience or just needed a brake?

After 3 yrs my privateer racing career on a 1991 Yamaha FZR 400 came to a fairly fast halt due to financial constraint after a couple crashes :unhappy:
It was hard to get back into the sport after having been riding at such a high level.
Older & a bit more restrained now...I'm ecstatic to be more involved in the sport then ever before :thumbsup:

Two wheels five, added a motor at twelve ....

:lol:

Haven't seen you posting up as much recently Robert. Your sense of humor has been missed as of late :agree:

Having been riding for only 3 years, I have experienced a lot of great things and seen a lot of beautiful things. The people that I have meet while riding is what keeps me riding. I am glad that I finally got the nerve up to learn to ride!

1st real bike was my brand new 1979 Sportster! before that is was anything i could cobble together. Old BSA's 350's or other cast off motors on nastily welded together frames with magnetos, raked forks and no brakes! Yeah we were cool! :laugh:

Two wheels, was a 1950-ish Firestone fat tire hand me down bike.
 
Honda XR80 at the age of 8, then moved into various 125 dirt and 250 enduro bikes as time went by until I was 16 and able to get my M endorsement. :thumbsup:
 
Started on 1985 Honda Interceptor in 2003 while in Hawaii. Bought Busa in 2004 and loving it ever since.
