In 2004 I saved up and bought my first bike.... a 1981 Suzuki GS550T...... spent the next two years terrorizing the WIU campus on that thing

My first bike, and the one i learned to ride on was a NEW Red 1975 Kawasaki MC1 KM 90cc trials bike..i was a young feller and dad sat on the back to teach me how to get going, lets just say that first ride was alone, and a wheel stand to boot lol

I started out on a Honda Dream 250. Big fenders and a square headlight. I rode that one into the ground, figuretively speaking.

Gilera 124 - made in Italy and imported by Sears - I paid $200 for it used. The brake was on the left and the shifter was on the right (sitting on the bike).

This is not the one I had but its the same model.

A 1965 BSA 500 twin I got in 1971 from a neighbor who had put 300 miles on and broke his arm parking the bike till I found it buried in his garage .
