Good thread topic. I was 19 (last yr) it was my old 03 600RR. I now have my R1, prolly 10K miles under my belt and yet to go down, knock on wood.

 

I was 17, now I'm 20.

 

I had a '7? yamaha 185 2 stroke at 15 engine siezed in it at 16 went to ninja 250 then F3 then 954rr I picked up some older bikes along the ways CB550's and a couple gs500's 2 cb400 hawks to ride around I have had alot of bikes but the CRF450 supermoto is by far my favorite bike.

 

19 y/o bought my 600rr wrecked and restored it, got about 5k miles on, couldn't be any happier.

 

I was 19 and I am now 24.

 

I got my first bike when I was 15. Honda 50. Since then I had a CB300. CB160. CL350. Took a few years off and now have a CBR600 F3. Feels good to ride again.

I was 19.

 

At 23 - 1996 Suzuki Bandit 600s had it for almost 2 yrs

I went about a yr without a bike.

I am now 26 and bought my 01 CBR F4i about 2 months ago.

 

I'm well over the hill!

First time ever riding 27, passed my unrestricted test at 28, bought my 600 FX and am still 28...for a month anyway! lol

 

On my younger years (9 or 10 yrs old) my dad bought me a honda trail 50 that wasnt running. We fixed it up and I rode it until the neighbors complaints to the police became to numerous to ignore. Killed me when we sold it.

When I was 16 I got a 1991 kawasaki ninja 250 with money I saved from a summer job.

November of 2008 (when I was still 16) I bought a 2003 CBR 600 F4i after selling the ninja and almost everything else I owned (xbox 360, flat screen, collection of baseball cards). Best decesion I ever made. Im 17 now.
