    My very first bike was a 50cc Yamaguchi when I was 15, traded my 10 speed bike for it and then went to a 66 Yamaha 80cc that I rode everywhere. Then I got my first car a 53 Plymouth 4 door flat 6, paid 90.00 for it. But took my drivers test in a 59 T-Bird, failed cause I couldn't parallel park it, course it was the first time I ever drove a car to.

    My first other than a mini bike was a Suzuki 185, street & trail. Don't remember the model year. Got it second hand after saving every cent I made cutting yards, ect. All the extra lights and stuff were stripped off, used it strictly for of road. Was too young for a license anyway lol.

    I think if I remember my first bike was a 1973 Suzuki RU50, a fat tired street and trail beast that stalled at every mud puddle due to a hole at the low front exhaust pipe that would have water splash into it and kill the motor. Then I got a big boy bike, Yamaha DT 100.

    Interesting, my first car was a 54 Plymouth it had the clutch less 3 speed on the column. Paid $50 had it for a couple weeks and pop convinced me to sell it got $75. Made a big $25 on it after waxing it up. Never had it on the road only drove it around pops service station.

    Lotta 50s boys...

    Mine was a 54 Olds 98 4dr, my dad bought it used in Paris KY
    from the John Deere dealer, mom drove it when I was a kid
    they gave it to my grandfather in SE Missouri and it stopped
    running, he kept it under a tree and I'd play in it every year
    we'd go back.

    When I turned 16 he had the engine fixed new radiator and
    gave it to me. Sold it when I moved to CA, never should have sold
    it, but I had no place to keep it...

    Job transfer, It was mid January, choices were Buffalo NY, LA or San Fran.

    Took San Fran, great weather, ride all the time, met the wife there, great place, lots of things to do, just too many libtards for me after two years I wanted out...

    Lots of loose wimen in Frisco. In the mid 70's we would send CPU tech there for a week or two and he wouldn't come back. Met woman and get married. Happened 3x to us so then we only sent married guys. They would come back but very very tired and smiling a lot!

    My favorite city was Monterey, Ca. Lived there off and on for 13 years. Lots and lots of loose women all over California.

    Ratio of straight/bi women to straight men in San Fran is

    I'll tell yea what that year I spent in San Diego was one of the best years of my life. I still smile when I think of those years. Plus a 9 month stay in the PI was fantastic. Here is an old pic of me and a friend in the PI probably 19 then and a few to many San Miguel's.
