Let's see, i've been riding since 1998.

I have not owned that many bikes:

1) Honda Shadow VLX; 3K miles. Still have it, gave it to Dad. He's since then added about... 0 miles to it :(
2) Suzuki katana 600; ~ 7K miles. Owned it for about 3 years?
3) BMW F800ST; 35K miles, 5 years old. Still in the stable
4) BMW R1200RT; 16K miles, 1 year old.

In my older age, i am riding more. i hate driving now.

All have been different and amazing in their own way. I love how each bike feels like it has its own personality. Also, I had a little Suzuki FA50 scootergrowing up that was a blast, even though it only went 20 mph tops :laughing


EDIT: forgot about a 2004 Ninja 250. It was ok. Wasn't the biggest fan. It just didn't feel confidence inspiring to me.
