Nice. I used to do a lot of motocross when I was younger. Rm250 and my bro had a Maico 490.
Fucking ridiculous bike. Nearly ripped my arms out their sockets ![](/icons/s/razz.gif) |

"Bimota YB9 Sri, 2 Yamaha RD500's & a Ducati 750 SS. " Nice bikes!
My road riding history went LC,YPVS,NS400R then ummed & ahhhhd about an RG or RD500 but went for a 750Slabside Gixxer instead.
Had a yellow 900SL for a while which led to my first TL (I've had 3)..

Starter bike, Honda CA. Only a 125 but have got the fear when it comes to doing the theory stuff that comes with upgrading.
To be fair I love the bike anyway, looks great, comfortable as fuck on long drives and since I'm not allowed on motorways the speed thing isn't such an issue.
Only thing I'd change is the choke, bike stalls at lights for the first 5 minutes of every journey unless I rev it for ages before and I don't want an ASBO. ![](/icons/s/mrgreen.gif) |

Have had plenty over the years, I knew I had too many when ma dad cursed at me because he kicked a crankcase on his way down the stairs Silly Daddy, he knew it was always likely to be there, or a piston or a gear of some description
Not had one for a few years though ![](/icons/s/sad.gif) |

"ER500.
I like it.
Oooh,,,I had one of those,,,absolutely loved it,never broke down and was a lot faster than you might have thought. "
I can second that, did the first part of my licence on one (I was learning when they brought in the changes and they swapped us onto Hornet 600s)
Surprisingly quick, and absolutely idiotproof to ride. Ugly as sin though. At least the old ones they had were |
