Me first bike was an yammy fs1e

Worst bike i rode was me mates gixxer 750, Its handled like a shed (bent somthing) and just down right scary.

I have ridden gixxers since and not felt as bad as i did on his, Somthing was horribly wrong.

Worst bike SV650S K3 silver? Now if it was black...God, in my day a GS500 was sheer luxury compared to the death traps we put up with...youth of today, eh?

Ride a knackered 2 stroke and then a SV will seem like a Saturn V.

My first and worst had to be my old RM125. But then again that was good.

Lambretta Li 125.

Kawasaki KE175 trail when i was 13,told my dad i could ride a bike with gears

snapped bars 10 mins later,impressive wheely though

Carb inside Engine casing!!! Eh?

I've never seen that!

First bike owned was half ownership in a non running Billy Bantam D175. With the couple of spanners and a screwdriver that me and my race team mate had we never did get her going. Sold for a nice little profit,not bad for two geeky 13 year olds though!

Didn't own but borrowed off my pal John his TS100 Trial bike when I was a tender 15 years of age, when he was on dates with Karen I rode his bike round the roads whilst he rode.....

Very embarasing one day when I pulled up to chat to them when they were out for a walk and I wheelied the little f*cker! Right over the top she went! Literally feet away from John who took it all in very good sport!

My dream first legal bike was a brand spanking 3 cylinder 2 stroke triple 250 Kawasaki! I loved that bike but when you got blasting on it the plumes of smoke from the exhaust were ridiculous!

:P

Of all the bikes I owned the only one I could honestly say I did not like was my V Max. Gorgeous looking,even now. Absolutely amazing straight line stonk from a full powered version. Only kept it for about 2 months despite it being brand new, it was the only bike that ever scared me in the bends as my style was not suited to the bike at all.

Bought my ZX6 NInja after that and it was like night and day.Superb bike.

Christ! I've ridden one of those bugg*rs!!

They DO NOT fill you with confidence when you go into a bend,it tries to steer for you pulling you towards the ground

Have to say though,FAST in a straight line!!

Honda C50 Field bike

Honda C90 Field bike (with no exhaust - funniest popping noise you've ever heard in your life

)

RD350 LC Mk1

And much much later...

SV650S K3, Silver - Wish I'd kept it

KTM 950SM - Best handling, fastest & nicest looking bike I have ever ridden - Worst ownership experience of any vehicle I've ever owned
