Re: Bike owned.
Easy.
Yamaha DT125 (1 Year) Forget what year
01 Honda Hornet 600 (Bought new traded for below)
02 Honda VTR1000 (Bought new still got it)
Next bike? Hopefully won't have to worry about that for a few years yet. Love the 'Storm, only downside is poor range. Just started a new job and will have to fill up every day when commuting!

Re: Bike owned.
Whats the tank range, it should get 100 miles on motorways journeys , I know when I had the last one it was pretty bad round town.
Re: Bike owned.

Re: Bike owned.
SS50—I should have taken note… chocolate covers and bolts made from cheese
Fantic Caballero—still have this one (in bits)—the original FS1E and AP annihilator—supreme classic, up there and perhaps beyond the Tiger Cross
Z650—one of the prettiest bikes made…just love the lines
Z750—unremarkable
KMX125—the best fun on two wheels, surprisingly…would buy a 200 version in a heartbeat, if one should come my way.
900 Sprint—fun but too big, loved the UJ… made me proud
1200 Trophy—just too big… lots to like and most capable but dull
955i Tiger—hmm great bike but ugly… love the triple howl but not built for filtering
Storm—work horse and very capable but greedy…perhaps to be pensioned off soon but retained.

Yamaha FZR400RR 3TJ
Yamaha YZF750
Yamaha FZR1000 Genesis streetfighter
Yamaha XS750 triple
Honda VTR1000F Firestorm (currently owned)
Thats it, 14 years of my biking history-reads as a logical sort of step up each time doesnt it? with the XS after the FZR because it was getting silly and I needed to slow down!
my favorite, is the one I had most fun on.. The VFR400.. Infact alot of the traits I liked about that are also in the 'storm-fast, predictable, comfy, and sounds great.

Re: Bike owned.
he,s right about the cabballero, id forgotten about them. my mate had one in 1975 and it was easily the quickest "50" at the time. i think his little brother got it off him and he went on to be the 1980 british grasstrack champion! dont know if the little frantic helped him!

Re: Bike owned.
Not a very long list for me..
After a few Puch Maxi's and a Gilera Citta illegally and an Aprilia RS50 I went for my driving license.
First bike a `89 Suzuki GS 500e (still owned)
The second now my `97 Storm.
