    Hey guys n gals I'm new to the forum so thot I'd post pics of my past and current mistresses ;) here goes this was my first big bike a Honda CBR600Fi [​IMG][​IMG]
    I now own one of these a 30 yrs old Honda CB1 400 for the winter commute [​IMG]
    And my Blade for salt free roads [​IMG][​IMG] Some of you may notice they have sumit in common they have all spawned from the big H :) purely because I'm a tight Jock and they last forever :D

    This is my first big bike. Owned it when I was 18. A long long time ago.

    The same year I went to Jersey camping with my mate and we both hired one of these. Yes that's me age 18.

    I cannot remember my first bike it was a Jap bike yam or suk twin two stroke under 250cc wonderful engine tone this was back in late 60s early 70s it was just the a tool to get me to work and back home again my mum hated me using it and was really happy to see it go when they gave me their car, I wished I could remember what it was or had a picture of it.

    Hopefully 13+ ST or STR preferably in white but I'll try both before I buy, I was at a Triumph open day at Two-wheels Edinburgh a couple of years ago I had a go on a Daytona and Speed Triple, I did not like the Speed at all but loved the Daytona but my mate was the opposite so it's horses for courses ;)

    These old bikes are a world away from what they make now, I have only had Jap bikes and this is my first British bike.

    No need to apologise I know mate it's definitely a personal thing! horses for courses I like certain sportbikes preferably without electronics but although some classic bike are gorgeous they just don't do it for me! I don't like Ducati's or Harley's but that's just me :)

    I like the Vespa, looks like a GTR or 150 Super or something like that.

    Yes your right. If we all liked the same thing in everything it would be a boring life
