67 years old on a 2006 Uly, my 29th bike.
#28 is my DRZ400SM and that rocks.
#30 yet to be found

I'm 39.5 (and holding...)

It seems like we're listing bikes. I have a Firebolt, Speed Triple and an SR50.

 

[Bobby Buell]

I am an old fart of 55, used to was a police motorcycle instructor. Have ridden one or two bikes over the years, mid life crisis led me to a Buell. (Son working in a HD shop helped) Love it! sold everything else to pay thieving bastards (ex wife and lawyers) but my Mistress (XB9SX hero blue wheels and translucids) not negotiable
Reason being; my last bike (Honda 600) like a vanilla wife; meets you at the door wearing sensible clothes, hands you slippers and a beer. Serves meat and taters and warms a comfy bed.
The Buell; pulls you into the hotel room, you dont have time to drink, let stop for food (she does want you to eat, and she'll show you where!). She is naked bar a few wisps of lace or leather and you dont surface till the viagra runs out, but what a ride!
Ps 2 reasons I got divorced; wife found me measuring my porridge cannon, turns out it was same length as her sisters throat. Later I finally located wifes g-spot, who would have thought it was hidden on her best friend?
On reflection, the Buell definitely the better and cheaper ride!!!

Just bought 05' XB12r after a 12 year hiatus from riding. Am 49. Used to work at an H-D, Honda, Yamaha shop in the 80's. Raced dirt track. Have owned CB400f and FT500 Hondas (and still do).

I'm 61, been riding since I was 16 (with a 25 year hiatus when I played with cars) bought my first bike, a Triumph Tiger Cub when I was 18, then it was a Norton Commando, a Triumph Bonneville, Honda 750, then a BMW 600/50 (my favourite till now), a couple of yers ago I bought an XR650R (big red pig) which was my least favourite bike). Bought my 04 'Bolt last October, this is my first full season with it and am still in process of putting aftermarket parts on it and getting the suspension set up for my weight and riding style.

So far I love the Bolt, not as comfy as my BMW for cruising (I put 40,000Km on it in 2 seasons, once rode 1,000 miles in one day on it) but handles way better and a lot more fun to ride.

47 cant remember all the bikes Ive owned. A few stand out. 1125r at the moment. Considering a KTM RC8R. Seems you can get 1190 power at a fraction of the cost Buell wants. Probably hang onto the 1125r in case they come out with a kit.

 

[allday9696]

I'm 30, riding a 2009 XB12R. Have been riding sport bikes for about 11 years. Looking at getting a harley cruiser soon. Better for the Mrs. to ride on.

[stensg]

I'm 24 first bike was a ninja 250 i miss it around town it was a blast. Second bike was a cbr600 hated the thing can't stand the i4 sound it was turned into a stunt bike. Third was a sv650 which I still have and is my backup bike and the one my wife rides when we go on family trips and my son rides with me on my forth bike the 1125r this was my first riding session with it well half session and I've put 4k miles on and about 1k is with my 5 year old boy I'm gong to be looking at getting another Buell in a few years just to hold onto for him.

 

[2hy2ride]

I'm 26, got my license a month before 16 and lost it a month after so I endedup under the radar on a Suz gsxc750 gave me three good years and nearly 45000 miles. When I was 18 I saw cycle world's lightning review and thought its was super cool but super out of my $league but before I was 20 I had my bolt , a theft recovery clean tho. For my 25th I got my self an anniversary 1125 its just freaking great. And at the beginning of the summer I picked up my 3rd an xb12scg with 2k for $3200. If I don't have to ill probably never sell any of my buells. On the flipside I got a kawi zx6e or zzr6 on my back porch I'd take a g for lol

 

[Semperfi]

I'm 20, I've got an 09 1125r and a 99 sportster bobber. The Harley is the ironic part for me, you don't see very many 20 year olds with a sportster lol

 

[akela]

I'm 30, bought 06 xb9sx this summer without ever being on bike in my life, sat on it and rode it 40miles back to my house. I've put 3000 miles over these 4 months of owning this beauty. I love it !!!!
