And what was your first ever bike?

Wondering what the transition process was from one style to another for you guys. I know many younger sport bikers switch to Harleys when they get older. My neighbor crashed his Ninja and now is considering a Harley Cruiser.

For me it was simple because I started late. First a 48 and the a Street Bob

I haven't had a Dyna yet, but I plan on buying a 2018...

 

Then you should go to Softail forum before cvaria slaps you, electronically.

 

Lol!

Started with dirt bikes around the age of 15, a little later than I would have liked but you have to play the hand you're dealt. Got my 96 sportster 1200 when I was 18, got my 03 dyna when I was 28. Definitely wouldnt mind a newer bike, just not in the cards. So I have to keep my clapper going ha ha ha.

 

In order:
97 Honda Magna
05 HD Night train
2017 LRS

my ol lady:
82 Honda Magna
