As you can see I really like old Honda's. They are great for poor college students. I would buy them cheap and ride them till they broke then sell them off.

I rode the first BMW for more than 10 years and no telling how many miles. All over the US and Mexico.

I owned several race bikes but for a few years I raced other peoples bikes. Those are the best bikes to ride.

As mentioned in a much earlier thread, I have some time in a 2001 RS125. Now that I'm taking my XB12R to track days, I've convinced my buddy to bring his RS125 out to the track. Looking forward to getting some time on it this summer. Those bikes are such a hoot to ride.

I wish I didn't sell the Magna. Really liked that bike. A few years ago I adopted a "Nothing gets sold" policy. I intend to die with more toys than anyone. My wife is not happy about my new philosophy
 
Resurrecting a dead thread! I just started riding last season, I've had four bikes including the Buell.

Chevnut--that XB12R looks awsome with the gloss black frame , takes it to a new level.
 
1 - 08 xb12scg. probably the last one I'll buy, but I'll likely never sell it. I tend to take years deciding to get something when it is purely a hobby/sport item, and never sell it.
