I love the 60s to 77 BMWs. After that they are too expensive to keep running.

I had a client pay his bill with a Suzuki GS850. It was either sell it or learn to rid it, so I took the class, got the license, and rode for a lot of years.

I have had about 10 motorcycles over the years, some really great ones too, but the one I dream about is my 1969 Kawasaki 250 A1SS Samarai. It was light, quick and easy to ride. I used to ride it 90 miles to Galveston and ride it on the beach, then ride it back home. 300 miles was a good day. I ran from cops on it almost died on it and felt free for the first time on it. I took my girlfriend out on it and took my friends to work on it. This is the only picture I could find of one. The seat is rotten but otherwise it looks like mine. www.cmsnl.com/community/vehicles/Kawasaki/a1ss-a/1970/79431.html#.XtMVw2ROkzQ |

When I was in Ireland, the family I stayed with had a Honda Rebel that I learned to ride on. The dad was a motorcycle geek and had about 6. I haven't ridden since then, and I don't think I could pick it up again under threat of execution.

Got my license on a 1977 Honda CB450F, full dress model. Heavy but could carry everything. It was my only vehicle for my first two years of college and I went from being the nerd in high school to the cool rebel in college marching band... Sort of.
