My first passenger ride was on a 1947 Indian Chief and I never recovered. My first new bike was a 1967 Yamaha YR-1 350. Got me a chopped 1942 Harley 45 (ape hanger style) in my senior year - suicide clutch and all. Someone stole it when I joined the Navy.

I recently HAD to sell my bikes on Ebay - the last one just a few months ago (all antiques but one).

Had lotsa bikes and lotsa wrecks.


love bikes,but way too dangerous now a days.

countless years on the rode, and am going into my 6th road race season.

2003 - Production 250 strokers (self funded)/400/F1 sidecar
2004 - Production 250
2005 - British Endurance, Coyote racing (self funded) GSXR600 (6th in champs)
2006 - British Endurance, Ultimate Finish (sponsored) GSXR750 (3rd in champs)
2007 - British Ducati Desmo championship, Ultimate Finish sponsored, Duacti 620. (9th in championship after heavy crash)
2008 - British Ducati Desmo championship, Ultimate Finish sponsored, Ducati 620

:smile: I think this will be my final year. I found that during 2007, i wasnt putting 100% into it and could/should have done better.

theres a couple of pics on my profile if anyones bothered :smile: Live them, breathe them, tame them, then take them apart and make them go quicker! laugh

Currently, am just a rider...But I dream of having my own one day...
My first ticket ever, 17 yrs old, lost my eye wear on the road, we get about a block from home-to get another pair, and wouldnt you know it... there sits a cop. Aaahhh... the sound of a Harley...the ride.. the freedom... its the only thing that gives me peace.
Longest ride...Austin, TX to South Padre Island Bikefest ! What a blast !

Wow, it'd probably be a mix, but my young love was for the bobbers - can't shake young love.

You're good enough for a Ducati sponsorship? Man, that's freakin' great. I love you, man.

I sold my Suzuki GS850 and my Yamaha XT550 last year and my Yamaha XS 650 and Honda Hawk and a barn FULL of Kawasaki Mach III parts in 2006.

This year I want another dual purpose and I hope to be able to afford the rumored ultimate Yamaha V-Max if/when it's offered this year.

ahahaha! no way! It's not a factory ducati ride!

The bike is owned by the sponsors and they foot all the racing bills, which is pretty sweet. But let me tell ya, i worked DAMN hard to forge that relationship. They trust me implicitly so when i say that i need to do something to the bike, then it needs doing. I dont spend their money on unecessary bits just cos they look pretty laugh

Rock on UK Bloke! Love the moto GP Racing!
This will be my first post in any of these bulletins..saw the word motorcycle and had to jump right in..

Lets see..1st bike was 17
Was an Yamaha RT360 (YES I SAID 360!) Enduro!
Hopped to a 1986 Yami RZ 350..bad ass little bike! Drove it on the Autobahn..
Then I got the Kawasaki Bug!
Love me some Ninja's!
I have owned a 1998 Ninja 250, an 1986 Ninja ZX6 Loved them both!
Currently own 1992 Ninja ZX6R and an 2003 Ninja 250, Those little 250's ROCK! Took her to Deals Gap and had the time of my life on it! Also been to the track with her..
Next bike that I will be adding to the collections is the Ninja ZX7...dream bike would be the ZX400..they dont make them here...but they are wicked bikes!

Ok..done rambling..sorrry..its a motorcycle thing! LOVE THEM..Been riding since I was 17 and dont forsee me stopping anytime soon!

my truck broke down last aug. and I haven't bothered to fix itlaugh


I hit a deer about a month ago and started on my bike everyday...I went to test drive cars today and decided I'd wait and use the money to be debt free...

any girls want to hook-up with a debt-free soon-to-be doctor with a fast bike?

NOTE: Must have car for bad weather in order to be considered
