First bike was a 1968 Bultaco Campera. First bike I could ride everyday, a 1977 Kawasaki KD125. Both are sitting in my shop. Hope to have them running again........SOMEDAY!!

My first bike was (if you can count this) a homemade minibike type thing made out of an old swing set and a 5hp Briggs and Stratton Lawn Mower motor. That little thing could move. Then I got a 69 Honda Super 90. The tranny went on it though and i've had a hard time finding parts. Then I pulled the 1970 honda cb350 that had been sitting in our barn for 20 years out. New points and plugs, an oil change and she's been going for two years. Currently our garage is overrun by bikes but I won't ever sell them. We have those two hondas plus a completely restored Honda Dream 305, a Harley Sportster 1200, a xr200, and my GS.

My GS is the first bike, maybe coming up on my second bike.

ATV's 2000 Polaris 325 Trailboss, 1999 400ex, 2001 Kawasaki Bayou 220, and a 2003 Yamaha Blaster.

1995 gs 500

a honda 50 mini trail took my virginity. then the propane man ran over it in my yard . :lol:

My first bike is a 2004 GS500F in yellow. I've been riding for 6 days now. First two days were at the Basic Riding Course. I bought the GS400F a last Saturday from a local dealership. I rode it around the block a few times on, and then put about 6 miles on it Sunday. Monday, I took another course at the riding school because I was not very comfortable after my first course. We rode for about 7 hours at the school. When I got home I had to get on my GS500 so I put another 10 miles on the bike. Yesterday (tuesday) I rode my bike over to my friends house and then around the neighborhood. I actually navigated some artirials and got the bike up to about 40 MPH which seemed really fast since I'd only been up to about 25 previously. My goal is to get on the freeway by this weekend. All in all I've put about 30 miles on the bike. I wish I had more time to ride, but work cuts out a large part of my day.

Ist bike? I remember it well. I bought v.i.n. CL77-1011796, a new red & grey Honda 305 "scrambler" on 10 Aug. 1966. I put over 21K on it in three years and sold it in August 1969. Sold it for $300 and used the money to set up "house", 'cause I was getting married that month. Still married to the same girl(woman) and have owned a motorcycle every year since 1966.

2005 GS500F - now with a little over 800 miles and still loving it

My first bike was a 1974 Honda CB750 K4,  that was a behemoth, first of the "sportbikes".  My second was a 1990 GS500e and as of recently, I'm on a 1989 Yamaha FJ1200.... that thing is a damn rocket sled.

Not sure what year ,60's,  but it was a Harley Rapido.

When I was 10, I got a 5hp mini bike. Even had front suspension.
It had a clutch brake. It was an interesting ride when the chain would pop off and no brakes. I added a drum brake to the front wheel. Started modding early.

That looks exactly like a GS500 motor....

It was a very used red moped.   Italian...Motobecane or Moto Guzzi or Moto Something.   Rode it around the back yard for a month or so until the motor seized up.   I got my $50 worth.
