How long have you been riding, how many bikes have you owned?
What's your current sled?

I have been riding legally on the street for 17 years(started at 14) and I have ridden close to 400,000 miles. I have owned 27 bikes,my 1st streetbike wasa Yamaha XS400 all the way to my Street Glide. I Have owned Exotic sportbikes like my Ducati 996S and ecclectic street bikes like my cafe racer inspired GL1000 bobber. I have 4 street bikes now. I have my SG for touring or longer rides, I have a Husqvarna SM610 supermoto hooligan play machine, I have a Kawasaki ZX10R with well over 170 rwhp to keep the local squids quiet when they wanna start calling me an old fart fro riding a bagger and I have my Honda Roadrace bike.I race with Wera during the race season Oh yeah, I am also a motorofficer and I ride my HD RoadKing at work all day. That is alot of riding for me.

Including my first mini bike and childhood dirt bikes I have been a motorcycle addict for 39 years. I really don't know how many I have owned, when I was younger they seemed to change all the time. Now I've got a Ultra. Love it!
