My personal bike history:

Nr Bike #Cyls cc Period Year built License plate Kms Top speed (km/h) Remarks
1 Honda CB 250 Twin 2 250 1984-1985 1978 ZE-74-12 25,000 130 These things still ride, after 20 years.
2 Yamaha XZ 550 2 550 1985-1987 1984 MG-50-JN 30,000 180 What didn't break down? Worst bike Yamaha (or anyone else for that matter) ever built.
3 Honda CB 450S 2 450 1987-1990 1987 MH-79-TZ 45,000 170 Good bike.
4 Suzuki GS 500 E 2 500 1990-1991 1990 MK-65-GR 25,000 175 Good bike, but not as good as the CB 450. Economical. Saddle not comfortable.
5 Honda CBR 600F 4 600 1991 1991 MK-??-?? 20,000 240 Fast. Crashed it after 4 months and 20,000 kms.
6 Honda CBR 600F 4 600 1992-1994 1992 MN-51-YR 40,000 240 Just as fast. Never crashed it.
7 BMW R1100GS 2 1100 1994-1996 1994 MT-41-DB 30,000 180 I'll never buy a BMW again. Looks good, quality not so good. Maybe I had a pre-production bike?
8 MuZ Skorpion Sport 1 660 1996-2000 1996 MX-21-HK 31,500 170 Good bike. Rattles a bit though. Economical, best saddle so far.
9 Suzuki SV650 S 2 650 2000-now 2000 ??-??-?? 12,000 > 200 Very good bike. Enough power, nice sound. Leg room might have been more spacious though.
