Hey, it wasn't that hard after all. S'pose it helps to have your wife's (plus brother-in-law & father-in-law's) bikes at your disposal during the preceeding formative years.

then I heard about bikes with 'motors'

Kwaka KX125 (not road legal, blew the piston out the side of the motor, left it where it dropped)
Kwaka KLR250
Honda VTR250
Kwaka GPX250
Ducati S2R 800

Still miss the KLR 250, liked the idea of riding along the highway, spot a dirt track, turn off the highway and see where it leads.

May add a dual purpose bike to the Garage again one day.

This is just going to emphasise who is young and who is old amongst us.

Honda CB125n
Kawasaki z250
Few years break then...
Honda VF1000 (still in the corner of the garage)
Suzuki Across
S2R800

I'm not but a mortal amongst gods here. Well maybe just old timers.

Only 12 months into riding bikes (legally) - that's what we are counting yeah?
