My first, bought used, end of freshman college year
Dropped this twice (very worn tires) but managed not to get hurt.
Painted it lime green with 2 cans of spray paint.
My first new bike, got as soon as I graduated
One day I rode this 200 miles with wife on the back, climbed a 4000 ft Mountain in N.H., and then drove back home 200 miles. It was nice to be young!
When we got a house, I moved up to this Yamaha 650 twin
Came with funky blue paint job, first I painted it black, then I got a great Pearl Pink paint job.
Then I got this marginal Triumph chopper with no front brake and a crappy rear brake.
I was lucky not to kill myself on that one. It was loud and cool, but anything but rideable.
