My first was a 1975 Suzuki GT380 Triple 2-Stroke Ram Air. I had a 68 Charger & 71 SuperBee 383 Mag both beat to Hell. Could never get them running enough to drive between money and experience (17 years old and a busboy wages) lots of carb fires & tranny fluid in the hair, but learned a lot. So an offer came along to trade for a Running Gt380 and that was it...Transportation! Fixed it up cherry and rode the chit out of it, sold it (regret) and the guy wrecked it! Moved up the Suzuki line GS850, GS1000, GSXR1100 oil cooled, then Ducati's 916SPA (955), 996, 998 Matrix, MH900e & a couple of other bikes sprinkled in & not counting dirt bikes. Still own a couple Ducati's. And a few years ago ran across an exact copy same color too, with 2k original miles on eBay, couple K later with shipping it arrived, took it off the truck & rode down the street! Other then some patina on the chrome & paint a nice bike.
