My lightning is by far my favorite and, as of a month ago, my last remaining bike.
 
I'm not sure of the years, but I've had (in chronological order):
-(?year) 3HP Minibike
Not sure what ever happened to this one.

-70's era Kawasaki KE100
-2 70's era Kawasaki KE175s
Oddly, all 3 of the KEs suffered an "untimely" demise from broken piston skirts. They ended up in the landfill.

-88 Honda XR80
This actually ended it's life as a 3 wheeler. I wish I had pics. My cousin cut the swingarm off and attached the ass-end of a riding lawn mower to it. This one threw a timing chain, sold it to a friend.

-95 Yamaha YZF600
1st street bike, bought it wrecked. Let a buddy ride it the 1st day I had it done, he crashed it. I repaired it, again. When I was trying to sell it the guy crashed while on a test drive. He bought it.

-88 HD Sportster 1200
This started out as an 883. I sold it to buy my Uly.

-06 Ulysses
My current baby, no intention of getting rid of it any time soon.
 
I've had 4 bikes, have 2 now.
