What was your first motorcycle?

[asp125]

In the same spirit as the "first car" thread, what was your first motorcycle (or Spyder if it's your first)? And do you have a picture of it?

Mine was a 97 Ninja 500 that I had in 2003.

My favorite however is still my 2008 GSX-R600, that thing would fly.

In the early 90's my husband bought me a Kawasaki 750. I hadn't asked for it and really didn't want anything to do with it. I rode it a few times around the neighborhood and eventually I got him to sell it. He tried for 15 years to get me either on my own motorcycle or on the back of his but I wouldn't. Now that I have my Spyder he can't get me off of it!

1981 Yamaha 400 street bike. One day I was at the dealer and I filled out the last entry blank for a 1982 Yamaha XS650SJ Heritage Special. A couple of weeks later I got a phone call. :yes:
Yep, I won that bike and still have it. It's dead in the garage. Bad generator.
I sold the 400 the next Spring cause I had the 650 to ride.

A Kawasaki Two-stroke triple from 1972... But it was only the 250! pps:

My uncle was a Whizzer dealer. Oh how I wanted one. My uncle's partner's son died on one when a motorist ran the red light and killed him on the spot. I wasn't permited to even think two wheels until I left the house on my own. My uncle folded his dealership.

Honda 50cc step through....I was 15 years old and loved that bike. I have 3 younger sisters, and when we were at out cottage up north...i would first take my 2nd sister 3 miles to the putt-putt golf, then come back get the youngest, then the middle...we would play golf and then reverse the process.....

Was that one of those Aeromacchi-Davidsons? :shocked:

I had a 1974; worst piece of :cus: that I EVER slung a leg over! :gaah:
If it hadn't died on it's own; I would surely have killed it just to get even...

But then; my experience may not accurately reflect that of all other owners... pps:

My first motorcycle was a brand new red S90 Honda. I used to carry it on the trailer hitch on my brand new '64 Chevelle SS. I Really wish I still had both of them. Those were the days!!
