I had the 1998 Honda CBR 900rr which after all the suspension work was a freaking laser beam in the twisties (sad I sold it) the the 2002 Honda VFR Interceptor which was another iconic bad ass machine, I have zero pics of my 1986 FZ600 sadly!
Last pic is my VFR sleeping next to my Busa!!!!!

94 black and orange Yamaha fzr1000 I bought new. then I built the motor. 1070 piston kit, vance & hines ported the head, fcr 41mm flat slide carbs, cams, bllet clutch basket, nos 72 shot. still wasn't happy so I went and bought a brand new 94 yzf 750 and drove it home 7 miles off the show room floor on a Friday after work and pulled the 750 motor out sat morning and put the built motor out the fzr 1000 in the yzf 750 and was riding it sunday morning. I miss that bike. it was fun!!! no one expected a little 94 yzf to be fast. back in the day it would destroy zx11s gsxr 1100s and anything else. ahhhhhh the good ole days. then the busa came out and changed everything. bought my 2000 busa in 2002 and still have it. don't really have a desire for any other bike.

Had a number of bikes prior to the Busa but what I got rid of to get my first Busa was this 2004 CBR 1000 really loved it more than it loved me, it was a torture rack for me got rid of it for more comfort and better 2 up accommodations, not a fan of undertail exhaust but it was nice in winter time to reach back at a stop light or stop sign to warn the hands up though...

I still own my last bike, if I ever sell this I dont know I'd ever get another. With how little it's used now it's quite a hard sell to spend 15k on a new/er one especially with a 10month old.
But in all seriousness 06le was my last one and before that was a 99 cbr919. I'd have to go digging somewhere for photos of both them.

Sometimes life gets in the way...when my kids were small, I had 3 or 4 bikes I hardly rode...
Then they got into dirt bikes and it was on like Donkey Kong...we spent a lot of time on those but my street bikes sat. My oldest has one of them now, I have pictures of him on it when he was a baby...
That's a long time to be bikeless...

That's the hope to get him on dirt bikes or quads.
I was a Harley tech from 2009 to this current year. So I rode about everyday. Just not on a personal bike
Makes sense.
I was going to work on becoming a tech and a buddy of mine told me I like to ride too much to be a tech...so I gave that idea up years ago. He says many days after work he is sick and tired of seeing bikes.
Impressive that you stay on here though...
