Grew up on bikes, the old man owned a courier firm and a breakers.

The list was long, but I haven't ridden in 5 years (I'm 28 now)

Highlights:
NSR250 MC18 (Got stopped on it the very day I passed my full test - for a wheelie with drunken passenger)
CBR400RR
ZX7-R (at 21) - totalled by lady driver pulling out - nice plate in wrist
Duke 916 (at 22) - too cramped and painful because of above plate
VTR1000F (Firestorm), which is now in the garage, recently sporting a VFR800 SS swingarm and underseat pipe

Last Sunday I very very nearly signed off on an 07 R1, it was the nuts, but I am shying away from sportsbikes now, the power is too scary (although the missus was eyeing up a GSXR1000 TT special edition as a replacement for her thundercat). I am thinking I might go for a supermotard, as I would probably fit a bit better (6ft3).
