Show us your...First bike / Ultimate bike

Nice MV Wildfire they are a lovely piece of engineering.

My first bike was a Honda crf50 as a nipper have had all sorts of bikes since the only regret was getting rid of my Suzuki srad 750
I sold it to a mate who still has it tucked up in his garage, no pics im afraid never had a camera back then.

Here are 3 of my ultimate bikes
Honda nr750 v4

The new Honda rc213v road bike

And certainly wouldn't turn my nose up at a Roland Sands custom bike

So many sports bikes!

My last two were trikes rather than bikes, here is the last and most spectacular one, a Honda Rune. The Honda Rune was designed by Arlen Ness a Harley designer usually, and the bike was built and sold only in America to replace the Honda Valkyrie. The trike conversion was done by Trike Shop here in the UK. It is a flat six 1800cc engine and pulled like a train. I would have it back in a heart beat when I win the lotto!

Trikes aren't my thing generally, but what a thing that is!! :thumbsup:

Cheers Andy, when I first saw it I just thought "Wow!" I've had it for 2.5 years now and love it. Although and RSV-4 is calling..
 
First bike:

Second & last bike:



(I only have 6x4 prints in the loft, so these are internet jobs. Same colours though).
 
Was only a biker for a short while, had a Triumph Street triple which was a fantastic bike.

I love the look of superbikes and the duc diavel is awesome but I'm sure would kill myself just as quick, so if I were to get an ultimate bike in future, it would be something like this:

10,000 miles minter and little investment last spring - great fun for no outlay. Can't wait for sunny dry weather - Z and ZX

had one of these as my first track bike... great little track tool, sweet handling and plenty of ooomph :thumbsup:
 
A friend tried to teach me to ride on a Honda (think it was an XR250R or XR200). Don't have a bike license, but if I did, I would be hankering for one of these - KTM-RC200

I feel pretty lucky to be born a little later and starting biking a little later too! My first bike is a brand new MT-125 I picked up in December. Loving it so far and its halved my commuting time! No idea how to post pics up here so you'll just have to imagien but I bought the grey/black one. Next up is a ducati scrambler or xsr700 when I pass my test :roll:
 
Great to see this thread still alive. Some gorgeous (and funny) two wheeled machines on here :thumbsup:
 
First bike was a Gixer 750 SRAD

This was my last bike..


Sold it an bought a Z4 instead. It's harder to fall of the Zed. :driving:

My first bike was a 1996 Kawasaki KH125

My dad has worked in motorcyle dealerships all my life, my mum was a motorcycle instructor and my uncle a motorcycle mechanic! :)

My second bike was a 1999 Suzuki 1200 Bandit, Followed by a Kawazaki ZR-7.

If I got another bike, I'd love a Honda VTR1000 Firestorm (In yellow!). Oldschool and some may say a little boring, but I absolutely love them!
