[QUOTE="Krell, post: 936998, member: 17438"] I started riding illegally on the street when my dad got me a little purple pull start mini bike at about 10yrs old. From there I progressed up through a few dirt bikes (Honda SL 100, KX 125, RM 400) and finally a Kawi 400 twin. All of which I rode on the street and in a manor befitting of an idiot. It's not good when you and your buddies say "I'm bored let's go get chased by the cops. Cool lets go!". It's a wonder I survived my childhood unscathed ;-) When I left for college my mother donated all of them to charity. After college I put a deposit on an sport bike. I think it was GSX 1100. I can't remember. Any way it was way to fast and I was still way to irresponsible at the time. I thought better of it and got my deposit back. Maybe that was the first sign of maturity. I did not actually pickup riding again until my 40s when I finally got my endoresment and bought my first legally registered bike in 2008. An 08 FJR. Now with kids and lots of responsibilities I am a (mostly) law abiding ATGATT type of rider. Don't get me wrong. I still love to light the wick, but I am much more prudent about when I do. So I responded to the poll with 40-49. [/QUOTE]
