    past history of bikes

    That Motoguzzi is FINE!

    I think most of you have seen my two bikes. My '97 TL1000s and my lastest edition; The Aprilia RS250. My bike scene began when my oldest brother came home from the Navy in '72. He bought a CL350 Honda; I thought that was the prettiest thing I'd ever seen! He took me for a ride and I was hooked! my first bike was a TT250 Suzuki (2 stroke) which fouled spark plugs continuously! and then had a '74 XL350 street/trail bike which I had a lot of fun on! Then an Ossa 250 trials bike of which I learned a great deal on! Then another XL ,but a 250 which was more fun than the 350!

    Believe it or not, but I had a BMW 750! faring, saddlebags, etc. Provided me with a lot of trouble and great expense in spite of what BMW's history.

    After that, I got married and all the biking seemed to disappear until about 13 years later when the divorce came about. I met a guy that had a Beautiful Haybusa and I immediately found my first sportbike: a 97 Suzuki Katana, then a 98 GSXR600 (crashed it), got my EX500 race bike and had it until a few months ago when I upgraded to my RS250!
    I then had an Aprilia RS50 which was REALLY fun! but had to sell it due to finacial things!
    And finally, my 97 Suzuki TL1000s which I dearly love!

    I hope one day to have another street/trail bike and a couple more for my daughters! and hopefully my husband! and I would like another RS50 too!

    I love motorcycles!

    I started on a Yamaha DT250 in 1974. Bought a Suzuki GS-400 in '80 for my fiance. We soon sold the Suzi and bought a '76 KZ-900, which I rode until going overseas in '87. Didn't get another bike until '96 when the wife and I bought a pair of NOS '92 CB750 Nighthawks. I traded my tired Nighthawk for my current ride, a new '2000 CBR-600F4, in Mar 2000, and had a lot of fun racing (errr, riding) with the litre bikes up in the mountains west of here. Late last year I toyed with the idea of upgrading to an '05 Goldwing. But my commute is now 90 miles of bumper-to-bumper traffic and I have little time to ride any more.
