Try a google search on Yamaha discussion forums. I'm sure you'll find something.

Ok, I'm new to the forums - but figured this is the best place to start:

My first and so far only bike

2003 Honda Shadow Spirit 750

My first was a '76 KZ400 that looked just like this :

I even had the Kawasaki helmet with matching paint and stripes. I was the 3rd one to learn to ride on this bike. It really took a beating and was still running strong when I sold it several years later.

Owned, or were able to use?

When I was a kid, my parents bought me quite a few junk motorcycles to play with... I would take them apart, try and get them running (sometimes succeeding), and so on... but with the exception of a Pugot moped I never rode any of them at all.

My first "real" bike (that I rode any distance on) was a '79 Yamaha XS1100.

My first "really real" bike (that I plan to ride a 100+ miles a day on) is a 2006 Kaw EX250R.

My first bike was a 1972 Yamaha RD350, I bought it at a garage sale for 250 bucks, ran it for 2 and a half hours one day and then it died, my liscence expired and I soild it for 100 bucks. That was technically my first bike. my first real rider is my 83 Seca though..heres a pic of a RD350, its a 73, and mine was arange, on one side, faded orange from being parked under a window in a garage for 20 years on the other.

Miss Evil is the one and only bike I've owned. She's an 04 Yamaha Warrior and puts a smile on my face every time we're out cruizin'.

First and current bike. '95 VS800.

This is not my bike, but what it looks like.

NICE looking bikes! My first bike was a 1978 Harley(AMF) 80cc minibike, fisrt street bike was a used 1975 Honda CB400F SuperSport I bought around 1987...I still have the street bike, it is in a sad state of affairs and in storage yet I keep it for sentiment.
