Default First motorcycle

Browsing around in ebay and I ran across my very first motorcycle I had when i was 15, a Honda ST 90 brings back memories lol.

I didn't have all the lights and whatnot - did'nt need em to ride in the neighborhood. Bought it for $50 bucks and rode it everyday before school haha.

So what was your first starter bike?

I started with this 1982 Yamaha XJ 650. I did a lot of different things to it for 1 year and sold it for double.







And finally in the bobber stage is when I was able to get it sold for a large chunk of change.

My first bike was a 1980 Suzuki DS 80. It was actually bought for my brother as his 9th birthday present so I was 6 at the time. Man did that thing scream for a 80. Here is a small pic of what it looked like(Not the same bike just a google pic)

Here is mine, I had an old honda 50, I still remember that thing like it was yesterday. I was 5 or 6 when I first got it, it was a hand me down from my older sister but I loved it with a passion. I think I mostly still remember it because it left a burn mark on my right leg from the tail pipe when I wrecked it once.
