What bikes have you owned?

[placidfemme]

Yup... but my fav is the ZX10 on the way to Paeroa with a broom handle leg rest and a hand operated gear changer! Best ever! Chris will always have "legend" status because of this!

[Conquiztador]

Sorry, no idea re all of them.

But here the ones that were/are significant:
BSA Bantam - first one I fiddled with after mopeds.
Jawa 350 - In the days when this was enough to get away from the cops with! She was stripped of all and anything that was not needed to make her go.
Vespa 150 - a "rat" scooter. Seriously!
Royal Enfield 500 Meteor Minior Sport 62 - my first pride and joy!
750 Bonny 78 - took me all around Europe
48 Harley Panhead (rigid custom) - still wish I had this girl!
Harley Pan-Shovel (rigid custom) 68 - fast girl!
Harley Shovel (rigid custom) 70's - tried to ride while family, business and mortage...
Bonny custom (rigid) ageless - to win shows with.

Others I can remember:
A few 650 -750 Triumphs put together and used for a month or so but then sold, some in shows
Suzuki DR500 to travel around Oz on. (My first Jap bike, and she was not a bad girl!)
Bout a doz or two 50 - 250cc japanese dirt bikes for me and my kids. Bought cheap, fixed up, used and abused and sold on.
Jawa speedway bikes 2 valve and 4 valve

Currently, not alrerady mentioned:
Honda NV400 fixed up and given to my oldest as present for finishing High School Now lives in my garage and used occasionally whe he comes "home"
XV 750 in middle of rebuild/customising Now have 2...
Suzuki NZ250 just sitting there. (Well, 2 actually, or 2 1/2 if exact...) Should really sell her... I did sell them!
A handful of dirtbikes. One a 500cc thingy.
A couple of 250cc road bikes in need of some tinkering so I can sell them. Only one left

Thats all my Alzheimer allows me to remember.

Update time:

A bunch of more dirt bikes (I looked in the shed and I am sure they are multiplying... Might de-sex them all!)
BMW K100 86
BMW K1 89
HD Panhead rigid 65
Some 50cc and 65cc KTM MX bikes for my youngest. Currently have two 65cc ones.

[mattsdakar]

Bought my first bike while living in London on my OE...didn't have a bike licence but had some mates doing a bike tour of Europe that sounded too good to miss out on so as you do....haven't been without a bike since...in the UK u can do a 3 day course to get a full licence then u can ride whatever you like.....

Whist sitting my licence I bought a Kawasaki GPZ750 that I tourered around Europe on several times mostly two up with girlfriend...great touring bike that I bought twice, second time was off insurance company after being taken out by a police van speeding thru a redlight.After getting it roadworthy again it promptly shit itself (gearbox blew hole in side of engine)while doing 120kmph on motorway (skid was about 400m long)!

Next was a succession of bikes I couriered in London incl Honda CB400 and Honda Bros 400
Next was a Honda Dominator
Last UK bike was a beautiful Metallic green Honda VFR750

A PE400 commuter?

You nutcase
How many times did you get done for "...inadvertant and unexpected wheelies, officer.."?

Just the once.Taking off from the Claudelands lights,up came front much to the dismay of the cop on a yamaha xs650.He pulled me over and I tried explaining that keeping the front down was an exercise in futility.When he replied "Sonny my bike is a much more powerfull 650 and I don't have that problem" I knew I was fucked.
