I think it was around 15, I know it was before I got my drivers lic. Heck, that was a long time ago, 37 years or so.

5 yrs old... on a rump 5hp minibike. ahh such fond memories...
once the throttle got stuck open and i had to ride by my dad and he grabbed me off like a football as i came by and the bike crashed in a ditch.... I love that man....

not for saving me but for fixing the return spring right there and letting me keep on riding.

20 when I bought my Nighthawk. Best purchase I ever made. Well, except for the SV of course.

Eighteen (1970), First thing I bought when I left home. Even then my mom threatened to burn it (overprotective). It was a used Yamaha 60 cc, street bike.

Started when I was 20. Enough hormones to make riding seem like a good idea. Now that I'm older and smarter at 21, I know riding is a superb idea.
