I had a brand new Kawasaki ZL900 Eliminator..
If I could have one bike back from all the bikes I have owned it would be this one. I absolutely loved this bike.. Dumbest thing I have ever done was sell it..



And a very wrecked and busted up Elsinore 450

I sold this bike in 86 or so and it was so torn up and destroyed it was rediculous..




(not my bikes these are internet pics.. I have some crappy poloroids of my bikes but it would be a waste of time to scan them..)

I had an 86' GSXR-750, just like this one.

I was 17, speed crazed and dumb. I'm suprised I'm still alive to talk about it.

That was my dream bike back then I did eventually buy one, an ex-race bike that sucked on the street. Learned my lesson

Hmmm, 1988?

I think in '88 I probably got rid of my YSR50 (primary vehicle ) and was riding an '83 XL 600.

I think my dirt bike that year was an '86 CR 125.

1982 Suzuki GS650E with a Kerker exhaust. Nice bike! Like so many others have said here... dumbest thing I ever did was sell it. Kind of like the one here but mine was blue.
