Default Your first motorcycle... what was it?

I remember my first motorcycle. It was a Suzuki GS500. I miss it sometimes because it was such an easy mc to ride and it was more upright than my current mc which made it really comfortable on longer trips. Gotta love them parallel twins.

85 Honda xr100, 85 Honda cr125, 87 Honda cr80, 91 Honda vtr250, 91 Yamaha FZR 600, 93 Honda CBR 600F2, 93 Yamaha XT 600, 93 Honda Nighthawk 750. I now have a 2002 Yamaha YZF R1 for the street and a 2001 CR 250 for the dirt, which in my opinion are two of the baddest bikes built for racing and speed.

Mine was a 1978 Yamaha DT, a duel sport. 125 cc's of raw power!
Of course I was only 11, and I was like 105 lbs. if that. So I learned to ride on the dirt, in the woods, on the back roads, you get the picture.
.
After that I got a 86 YZ 125. That bike was the sh!t for a 15 year old.

1990 EX500. I actually still have it even though it's seen better days. I've always touted its versatility and ease of use. It was relatively good, cheap fun. I'd probably still be riding it if it weren't for the deal my brother gave me on his old YZF600R. Now I think I'm going to have to sell it off... :happysad:

If that was an ex250, I would probably want to buy it off you. I'm trying to search for a beginner track bike. h:

I actually wouldn't mind an ex250 in the future either for track use.

Oh man, tell me why, when I went to the motorcycle show, one of the bikes I was diggin' was the Ninja 250, LOL. When I sat on it, I just wanted to take it home. h: Oh yeah, and I was drooling all over the Honda VFR800. That'll be my bike when I get older... if I can afford it. :happysad:
