Tom,

Your post brings up an interesting subject, one's personal history of 
bikes.  I'd love to hear what others have owned, and which they liked. 
My story reads like this:

1. 82 Suzuki GS450 - great starter bike, loved it so much I sold it to my 
bro so he could learn to ride on it.
2. 89 Kawasaki Vulcan 750 - really liked this bike and it was the only 
cruiser I've ever owned.  It met with an untimely demise at the hands of 
a Buick and almost took me with it...
3. 79 Honda CB750 - this bike was the friggen devil, in a bad way.  I 
owned it for 2 years, it never ran.  I poured twice it's original 
purchase price into it trying to fix its myriad electrical gremlins to no 
avail.  Finally sold it for half what I paid for it.  Seriously turned me 
off from ever owning another Honda.  The worst vehicle I've ever owned.
4. 89 Honda Transalp - the one bike I never should have gotten rid of. 
Had it alongside the CB and sold it to finance CB repairs (AH!).  The 
most comfortable ride I've ever had, a little low on power but otherwise 
a hoot.
5. 83 BMW R65LS - bought this for $300 off a college buddy of mine who'd 
had it in a barn for 10 years.  It was never much of a looker, but it ran 
and was fun to fix up.  Yet another bike that I sold to my brother.
6. 89 Yamaha FJ1200 - oh, so much torque.  Great long distance machine. 
Sold it to get the trumpet.
7. 00 Triumph Sprint RS - 4 years, lots of miles, no end in sight.

I think that's all of them.
