The Suzuki Bandit got me from the get go. I liked the semi nude, and what I read about it was good for what I wanted.
They were gone by the time I was looking, so I went SV. Glad I did as I really like the V-twin.

My first love [of the moto kind] was a Yamaha DT-60 mini enduro.

I was 11.

I never had any interest in bikes until one day I came home for a visit and my mom says with a childish grin, "have you looked in the garage?"

Before that day I never knew, or cared, what a naked bike was. Didn't know anything about bikes, but all I knew was that my mid 50s dad just bought a red sportbike.

And I knew I had to have one.

It was an 04 Kawi Z1000

I only got to ride it one night and that was at the drag strip when it was slammed and stretched.

I still wish I would've had the money to buy it from him when he sold it.

I was around bikes with my old man my whole life, but I truly fell in love with them when he brought home his '87 V-Max. That was the day I turned to the darkside and I knew I was never coming back.

2003 CBR 600 RR. I loved that bike from the moment I laid eyes on her.

I didn't know what type of bike it was or even what a Lucky Strike was but I clipped every picture I could find of this race team's bike out and stuck it on my wall when I was 15. I'm sure my parents were thrilled.
