    First dirtbike: 1978 XL75
    Streetbike: 1980 CB400T Hawk. Kind of funny, in 5th every 1,000RPM = 10MPH. top speed was just over 100 on a good day.

    Same exact thing except I bought for $4400 and sold for $3800...I got gypped? (MSRP was $4800). I was happy with that bike until the day I hopped on my friend's ZX9.

    '00 zx6r

    I was looking for an FZR, YZF, ex500, etc... something better for a beginner, but I had too much money burning a hole in my pocket at the time & it was a pretty good deal at 4300 bucks (Bought it on eBay )

    1986 Suzuki Intruder. Wish I had shot from the side, but this'll have to do. Sure was a good looking bike.

    A 1982 Yamaha XS400RJ Seca. I crashed the shit out of that thing in some gravel. I loved that bike. Worst brakes ever, though.
