Been riding since 92, but
have owned a myriad of machines in a short time:
(in order) 81CB750 -Tank! 74Honda CL350-
what a blast..best 50 bucks I ever spent..blew up 2
yrs later. 76HondaCB750F- miss this one..ultra
reliable and pretty dang fast for a tank. 74 Yam
RD350- this is the one that started it all. 5 years, 3
states, 3 girlfiends,and 1 cat passed by as I
struggled with the jetting on this one. Sold it about
a month after I finally got it right. New owner blew
it up after only 100km due to the fact he liked
timing it with a ruler. :( 72GT380..love this one,
buddys girlfriend owns it now..still get to visit it. 74
suzi T-500..grenaded big end bearing at 100mph in
Kansas..fun fun..currently being restored by
friend(gave it to him) 82 suzi GS550..what a
BORING bike... made a great profit on it though :)
74GT185--moped on crack. Ex-Fiance wound up
with it..miss the GT more than her. 99Suzi SV650.
Awesome..I love it. 76..79? CB750F RatBike
project..still trolling around in the parking
lot..Burnouts only. 73Kawa S2-the one-year 350
triple..in progress. SOTW2001 bike.
77GT550--just acquired...needs alot of TLC
..(IE:pistons)Next winter proj? I Work as engineer
(civil) but still practicing clockmaker (8-years
exp...love it). Will try to rig anything, as long as it
makes it faster, louder, or generally less socially
acceptable. My theory is this: 3 digits a day keeps
the old age away. Wheelies are mandatory, and the
day you grow up is the day you begin to die. Live
life to the max and do it all before it does you. Own
a cat, they are funny drunk. WOO HOO!!
