(86) 200s honda Three wheel (89) cbr 600f hurricane (99) YZ250 dirtbike (current) (03) VTR1000 (current) Hurricane eh? Interesting name. It was simply known as a CBR600 here. Was also nicknamed the "GOOF" due to the 6 looking like a G the way it was printed on the fairing stickers.

Been riding bikes for about 24 years now but not that many in my list.
1st bike was a Fantic 50cc,ain't got a clue what model it was but it had been converted to a dirt bike and was a bitch to start but went like the clappers when it was running. 2nd bike was a Yamaha RD50MX when I was 16,with the learner laws over here it would only do about 40 mph flat out down a hill but looked good. 3rd bike was a Yamaha RS125,very quick for a little bike but looked s**t! ;D 4th bike was a Yamaha DT80 which was useless on the road but great on the dirt. 5th bike was a Suzuki GP100 which cost me nothing as I had to rebuild it but it went ok. Next it was a Suzuki X7 which was probably my first "real bike".It would never quite do the magic ton but it was fun trying.I wrote it off racing an RD250. I won the race but forgot to slow down at the roundabout Iwas fast approaching ;D After killing that bike I had about 5 years without a bike as I couldn't afford both a bike and a car but in the end I scraped up enough to buy a Kawasaki EN454 which was an american import cruiser which was good fun to ride but not very cool. 7th bike was a Yamaha XJ600 which was a pile of boring poo!!kept it for about 6 months before trading it in for a FZR600 which was a cracking bike,it was my first real taste of sportsbikes and I wish I still had it. Owned an RD350 for a short time at the same time but could not see what all the fuss was about as the FZR was much better. Now i've got the 'Storm and i've owned that for a little over 2 years, like it so much i think i'll keep it for another year or 2 ;D

My first bike was a '98 Suzuki Across then I upgraded to a '97 Firestorm when a mate sold his to go OS. I'm pretty sure that he regrets that decision every time he sees the bike (even though I'm sure he had a great time OS).
