then once again updated but went to a green machine Kawasaki KDX 175

First bike was a Yamaha AT100 this was before "dirt bikes" and was the predecessor of the DT
1st one I
rode was a Grasshopper (remember them?) and a succession of Postie scooters (I wonder where we got them now)
From that to a KLX250, then a IT 175G (top bike)
First road bike was a z900 (none of them poofy 2fiddies in those days!!)
First NEW bike was a KLR600 (first big accident too)
Bike that taught me everything was a ZX7R but
"OH so THATS what they mean by handling..."

First bike was a CR80
First road bike was a 90 model GPX250 brand spanker, they'd not long come out. Not as quick as my older brothers KR-1 but out handle and brake it. On a nice twisty road there was no-way he'd get away form me.

First bike as such was a GSX400, but all I did was putt around to work and back on it. First bike I really rode as such was a 550 Zephyr, still miss it.
