Ist motorcycle was a 1978 Honda CB550 Four-K in 1983, first H-D was a 1985 FXEFB in 1986

 

First bike was a Yamaha 80 Enduro. After a 30 year gap got a Honda 600 Shadow. Too small so got a 1300 VTX 2 months later. Always wanted a Harley even though both Hondas were fantastic bikes. Finally took the plunge in '08 and never looked back. There really is an indescribable difference in feel from the metrics. Rode a couple of Triumphs in the meantime, and they too have a distinct charm about them.

 

Ninja 250 to a Honda CBR F4i 600 to a Honda VTX 1300R to my Road King

 

Started on a 79 Honda CX500 custom, went to a 86 Suzuki Intruder 700, and now a Heritage and loving it!!!

 

Technically, my FXSTC is the first bike I have ridden on the streets and highways. I had a beater '86 Suzuki Intruder VS700 for 10 months, but I never licensed it, and only rode it around the neighborhood. That thing was just too small for me. Even the Softail is kinda small for me. So, I'll probably move up to a Road King eventually.

 

Started on dirt bikes and then various metrics ( I still have a Kawasaki Ninja in the garage) The Electra Glide Ultra was our first Harley. Prior to that we had a Yamaha Royal Star Venture.

 

Started in 1962 on a hond CB 160. Took a long time to get at my final destination.

 

I rode a Honda 50cc dirt bike as a kid, till I was about 15 or 16 and it died.

Then in 2009 I took the MSF and went for a brand new Street Bob. I loved that bike, but the wife lost her job. We traded in my Dyna and her Nightster to lower our payments and I got a Fat boy Lo...no complaints there.

Of course, I am now under water on how much I owe to how much my bike is worth, but at least my payments are lower.

 

My 09 Noght Train is my first and only motorcycle.

 

Started with a Kawasaki Flat tracning, first road bike was a Honda 750 4 New in 74.
First Harley was a 1947 Knuckle then a 1940 Flathead 80 then a 1980 Wideglide, 20 year lay off then a 2006 1200C...Now a 2008 FXDC.
