First bike, Bridgestone 100 sport, pic from internet, I don't have any photos. Mine was USED and I abused it. Think I was 14. Drove it into a school dance, did donuts, took off and hid it.. Got caught, not good. Later on I was tearing around and ran a Yield sign.. Got caught by a car this time, was wedged under front bumper, bike got busted up,, somehow I wasn't. Used to haul 4 of us around on this thing. Next bike, my 70something Honda 125, web pic, tore this bike up! Have no idea what ever happened to it. I was around 16, got in an argument with some guys in a pickup, my buddy jumped on with me, we chased them, they stopped quickly, we didn't, flew off the bike, slammed into their tailgate, end of fight. Webpic, 73 Honda cb450, I was 19, bought from my older cousin, put ape hangers on it, loud slip on pipes, I was now a typical dumb ass but thought I was so cool. My mid 20's, bought an abused not running yamaha IT400, fixed it up, and used on many trips to Colorado, trail riding & local tracks & spots in KS. My mid 20's, kx125, did some moto & hare scrambles, sold later on after a couple bad landings/crashes. Late 80's? Yamaha 175, bought from my brother who couldn't get it running. Fixed it up and abused it. Bought NEW in 1983, Honda Shadow 750, pampered this bike, loved it.
