When I was 12 years old I sold my two 4-H calves and bought a new Cushman Super silver eagle. Two speed suicide. Was the prettiest piece of equipment on the farm. Been trying to get between a pair of calves ever since, (snicker) Mike

Man! I hadn't even thot about it in a long time! It was a 175cc Bridgestone! Lets see how many remember that brand!

When I was ten I bought a Bonanza mini-bike like the one below:



In 1971 I bought my first dirt bike - a 1971 Yamaha DT1 250 MX:



In 1972 I bought my first street bike - a 1972 H-D XLH:



Picture below taken thirty-five years later aboard my FXST.

Default First Bike

1980 Suzuki 450 L - Popped the clutch (accidentally) on my first ride, pulled the front tire, fell off, the bike did a wheelie across the intersection, hit the curb and shot up about 5 feet into the air and landed in a neighbors front yard - also my first experience fixing a bike!
