Default How many different bikes before your current Dyna

I was just wondering now I am in my 50's and still loving riding just as much as when I was 16 how many different types of bikes you have owned prior to your current Dyna. I'll start in chronolagical order:
[ol][*]'72 BSA Bantam 125 - loved this bike, great to learn on[*]'73 Norton Navigator 350 - leaked oil everywhere from everywhere[*]'74 Honda 360N - loved this bike[*]'77 Honda C90 - whilst I was a student in London - sorry[*]'80 Honda 250 Trials Bike - kept falling off it[*]'94 HD 1200 Sportster - traded up[*]'95 HD Dyna Convertible - got written off[*]'98 BMW R1200C - confidence builder & eventually sold to take my family on holiday[*]'99 BMW K1200RS - ditto[*]'03 Honda CB1300F - traded in for current bike[*]'06 HDFXDBi StreetBob - my stress buster and last bike[/ol]

Default RE: How many different bikes before your current Dyna

Here's my list, beginning with the bikes I had as a kid ...

Numerous trail bikes and motocross bikes
Honda CL200
'73 Harley FLH - stripped, straight pipes, black and chrome, S&S Super carb
'82 LowRider - wide handlebars, straightpipes, WideGlide rear fender, black Imron and chrome, S&S Super carb
'85 WideGlide - 8" over forks, red, then green metallic paint, ape-hangers, and straight pipes, S&S Super with accel. pump (SuperBowl)
'08 SuperGlide - stock with windshield, detachable bags and sissybar, and with extra chrome

Next ... a second scooter, a Buell or maybe a Ducati Monster.

None so it makes it really easy for me to tell how many miles I have ridden in my life. I just have to look at the odemeter. 18k miles so far.
