Your bikes and pictures
09/30/10 at 08:31:52

I thought it would be nice if we all listed how many and makes as well as year of bikes we have owned. I realize some are new and haven't had maybe more than one. Yet again for the ones of us that have been fortunate enough to have more than one, they can share their stories. Oh and pics are welcomed as well..

My first bike was a 2005, 50 cc Yamaha Zuma Sports scooter.
then I had for a brief time. 2000, 600 Honda Shadow VLX,
2007. 250 New Honda Rebel.. Loved it after the first 1200 miles.
Then in 2009 My present bike.. My beloved Genie..2009 S-40, 650

So come on guys and gals, post those stories and pics..

Kimchris,

I have been riding for over 50 years, and have probably owned that many different bikes, some for only a couple of months, and some for years. The problem is that I am almost 65 and have the memory to go along with it. At my age, I tend to live in zen time. My bike is what I am riding currently, an 03 LS650. Besides, a gentleman never discusses previous loves.

Pretty short list for me too.
2008: March, bought an '08 S40, red. Wish I'd kept it, but couldn't afford it and another one, and I'm not about to stop with my first ever bike. Roll Eyes

2010: March, bought an '09 C50, green and white. I like this bike, but it'll get traded eventually too I'm sure. So many bikes to try, so little money! Angry

Our last ride together Smiley

My last looong ride (just over 150 miles!) around Mount St. Helens:

Took a break (broke) and then got a Yahama 250 Tri-moto around 86. Took another break (broke again) then got a 2008 S40. I kept the S40 for 2 years then got a 2009 Suzuki C50. Each bike was and is a lot of fun. I sure hope I won't have to take another break.

2007 50cc Honda Metropolitan which I ride to work -my 17th anniversary present fro my husband Kiss

2005 Harley Davidson XL 1200 R Sportster - still have it but I didn't like it Embarrassed

(clutch too stiff,bike too tall & top heavy) My husband takes turns riding his Fat Bob & the Sportser. He refuses to sell the Sportster because he thinks someday I'll be brave enough to try it again -NOT!!!

2009 Suzuki Boulevard s40 (my pride & joy) My husband got me the s40 after we took our son for the MSF classes.By that time I had already given up on the sportster and decided I just couldn't ride motorcycles.After watching them do the classes it dawned on me that the sportster was too big.Long story short - I told my Husband I wanted a rebel which both he and my son replied no,you don't so I pouted until we went looking for a Rebel for me.My son spotted the s40 and it was love at first sight!
