no idea wot it was called, but it had fat little wheels & a pull start & I was about 11, went from that to an RM 80, then a PE 175, so forth & ect ect ect ect till today & I got NOTHING until he Nightster arrives next month.

Guys gotta start somewhere,

First bike - Honda XR75

First road bike - Homda CB250 Superhawk

I'm glad my taste in bikes has improved since then.

Wee r very cool Lofty...we both had the same first bikes from the XR to the ol blue superhawk......ahhh the memories...

 MX 80, RM 80, CR85RB, CRf150RB, DT 175 for Uni, YZ125, CRF250R Ltd Ed,....& now 07 Street Bob!

When I was a kid we only had pushbikes. First motorbike was a Honda XL185 when I was about 16.

Then after a few years gap it was a Kawasaki VN800A, because I couldn't afford a wide glide. Comfortable bike, good tourer, but not a Harley.

About a year later I found a Harley that I could afford... a 98 Superglide. Loved this bike, but wasn't a fan of the narrow glide front. Had some good trips on it though. Handled beautifully.

 

This was the first weapon  Hand me down from my brother at the ripe old age of 5

After that XR 80 , then XL185 ..frist roadie was a RGV250

WOW Paul,  That's the same kind of beast I had, swapped 2 skate boards for it, my old man got it going & my bro & I spent so much time on it we wore it out, what a flash back, mind you our's was no where near as neat looking as that.

Thoses little Honda's must be responsible for starting so many people on the path to bikedom.

 

Thanks for that.

Mate I just googled that pic...but it's the same 1, same colour

 

And yeah.... I know so many people who started out on the old min trail

My first bike that i owned was a XR 200. The oldies said that if i ever bought a motorbike home they would put an axe through the tank(they once owned bikes and i was a little bit wild).Mum won a ER175 in a raffel and i went out the next day and bought it, as if it was good enough for them it was good enough for me, i was about 17. My first road bike was a Harley Deuce which i got 4 years ago and still have, and i part own a smick BSA Bantam 250cc which the cook thinks is my mates, and vice versa.Women just dont understand for some reason.

Then added a small petrol motor to the same bike. No clutch or brakes to talk of. Later I extended the forks by cutting and adding longer tubes. Jesus that thing didn't wanna go around corners.
