Wow memories...
First real bike was a 70-something TM400...scary/hairy ill mannerred beast, but what a rush when it hit it's powerband!!! First streeter was a 77 GS550, low bars, end mirrors, Kerker pipes, and I thought I was the King. Bikeless for 18 years until the Busa.

18 years..... Wow you were just like me when you got your Busa - I was like holy S---. A lot of people think that we never made it to the Jetson's in 21st century. When someone says that to me now - I tell them about the ground rocket ship made in Japan by robots that'll go 200 mph and make you feel like you've hit warp speed on Startrek.....
And yes I'm ready for Suzuki to call me about advise on paint colors and marketing job.

Check out the bell bottomsNot my first bikes, but this vintage Postal. 1975 Honda SS and a 1980 Suzuki 750. Can't post em unless I rescan them, and my scanner is broke. Had to settle for PDF.

Hey Martha, just be sure they have their helmets on... any other part of the body should heal up ok on its own...Mine was a '72 KD90 that I bought with a seized up engine, my dad and I rebuilt her !! Oh and yes, my parents never fed me

couldn't get Hondas Red Rocket { CR 250 R }. Got a used 1974 Cz 250. It was still cool with the Marzocchi Forks. This is a pic of the model, but not mine. Cheers
Here's me on my first motorcycle. Had loads of fun on that little Honda 50! That's my sis ridin' pillion. I had to ride the tank to give her enough room. It's a wonder I didn't kill us both! Was kinda wild on my toys even back then. 
Oh yeah, unlike banditoo, my parents fed me plenty!
