My list is kinda short compared to most of you guys, but here it is:

1975 Kawasaki 250 triple... Bought new in 77 from a dealer

1975  Honda 350   sorta a Army green color

1977  Honda 550   same color   Didn't learn

1978  Honda 750  Vetter Fairing w/stereo   Not that many bikes w/stereo back then.  At least I thought I was cool.  Had a cig lighter to fire up a doobie.  :P

1980  Goldwing Interstate    First fully dressed factory bike, ordered it and had to wait about 5 months to get it.  Burgandy w/matching trailer.  Lots of fun and saw lots of the US.  Sold it in 1988 with over 80K miles and took a MC break.

2003 FLHT   First Harley, loved it. Spent to much on it, but WTF!

2006  FLHTCUSEI   Ship date Feb 10, 2006.

Currently riding a 2002 GW that my Bro-in-law permanently loaned me to keep my knees in the breeze, but it's kinda like kissing your sister.  Not much thrill there.

I still wish I had the 500/3 Kawie, but I do have a deposit on one of these.

ZX14R
I feel the need to commit road crimes again.
