[Razor]

Before the SV I had a flat barred Zx-9R, before that a flat barred 94 fireblade. I always buy crash damaged bikes, they look like puppies about to be destroyed and I have to take them home and make them feel better, before crashing them myself.
My Sv was also a cat D, it was just to cheap to say no and it's my first vee twin.

[Saint Matt]

A fantastic bike. Got nicked and used in Bradford Flat pits before being used as a get away bike and getting hit by a police car. So needless to say it was written off. Did about 500 miles in the week it was stolen to being recovered. NICE!

Yamaha Neo's 50 cc but must have been derestricted cos it could do 40. But was all smashed up when I got it.
http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i136/stu369/neos_MidnightBlack.jpg

Decided to learn how to change gears so got a Gilera Coguar as the cheapest 125 I could find
Didn't have the sissy bar and wasn't in half as good condition though
http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i136/stu369/bikepics-216169-full.jpg

Then when I wanted something more sporty but still insurance friendly I heard about the SV

[rob13]

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v642/robchester/smallerpic.jpg

Had that for a year before i bought the SV. Good little bike to cut my teeth on

[454697819]

First Bike was an aprilia RX 50 no piccies... bought it new and wasted a fortune.... i was young and stupid.. it was stolen and recovered re built and sold to make way for...the sv.

http://w1.bikepics.com/pics/2004/09/13/bikepics-211515-800.jpg

my first sv... i loved this bike and it deserved better than what it got from me... bought as a re built write off it was then ridden by me for 10k miles and crashed into a car when they pulled out on me... as they paid in cash it was rebuilt at a cost of £1600 and rebuilt sold 2 years and a bit ago.

http://farm1.static.flickr.com/3/4613892_e34bbdc074.jpg

To make way for this... i want another... awesome bike but pointless and expensive.

http://farm1.static.flickr.com/6/10294548_c111157143.jpg

Sold to move house ... then i bought this , did it up rode it several thousand miles and then sold it as it doesn't fit me and i couldn't afford to keep it as i was buying a house....

to right .. it used to cost 12£ in fuel every time you rode it and £35 in a apart of some description... great fun though,.... :lol: :lol:

[tricky]

My first bike, a Honda C50, it was a complete **** heap, bugger seized on me doing about 40mph on the A52. With no clutch to pull in to unlock the back wheel, this is quite an exciting experience.
I stayed on somehow though.

I so so so wished that I could have the other two back. :cry:

Typical. Always wants more than he's got.

I went from this, but the slightly earlier R version:

Which I abandoned at Uni after leaking gaslets, smashed lights due to vandalism and general rust & crap. Howver had some fun in the Yorkshire Dales keeping up with my mate on his Gas Gas 250 crosser. Suffice to say I was riding beyond my and the machines ability, bottoming out the suspension and liviing on the red line. Crashed it ripping my jeans and putting a hole in my ex army cagoule. Road it home though!

To this, with a bit of a gap of 3 -4 years

Did have this, I crashed it once and had to replace the whole front end :( and then the day before I was going to put the headlight on and take it for a spin, someone stole it! Luckily it was found dumped 5 miles away and it was in a sorry, sorry state but I kept her alive with a LOT of tlc and she is still going strong for the guy who bought her from me :D:D

Immediately before the SV I had a Bandit 400V - here it is next to my baby:

http://farm1.static.flickr.com/28/43755729_23c76a1a39.jpg

Before that I had a GPZ500 - there's a photo of it somewhere at home. If I remember I'll scan it and post it at some point. It was a crap bike, but I loved it because it was my first!

[peanut]

...and here it is:

http://farm1.static.flickr.com/181/408696078_7ded98044c.jpg

and a couple more of the Bandit for good measure, and becaus I like the colour.

Maybe I should get a re-spray on the SV.....
