Lots of great memories along this list. Enjoyed the rd350 because it always smoked my buddy's honda 350/4.

Enjoy the vmax for the "need for speed" and the Vstar1100 for cruising with my wife(no intercom:rofl_200:)

Have fun, Ride Safe!!

The YZ was the strongest 125 ever, a major factory freak. VMax is the best road bike yet, the Intrude4 was all modded up and a nice chopper.

Since I was a smart ass a few years ago, I thought I'd add what I have actually owned.

KZ440 belt drive (first bike)

Mid nineties Night Hawk 750 (sold for money to work on house and I hated it)

1984 CB700SC (Not bad, but had too many issues)

2003 SV1000S (Bought it new, LOVE IT AND STILL HAVE IT)

1988 Honda Hawk GT 650 (bought it for my ex GF and broke up with her 2 weeks later) SOLD! lol

2006 Vmax (Bought it new! Great bike and I made it better & I still have this one too)

That's it. I think I'm done with bikes. I'm not planning to sell what I have, but I'm not going to buy any more. I don't ride these. I left them in storage this year because I have a 9 month old and I don't care to be away from him.

Now I am into cars... FASTER the better... Just need more money... lol

I see that my thread got combined with another. Reading the first threads contents, I fail to see the similarity to what we had going. Anyone new to this thread reading it from the beginning should be confused...:confused2: Oh well...
 
These two threads must have had sex and mated:confused2::confused2:
