For some, this could be a looong list, but share what bikes you've owned, ridden and raced, and maybe a comment.

I started out on trails and in fields, started track riding, tried a screamer, chickened out, then wanted to get serious about racing right when the 4 strokes were amazing and new, then went back to a 2 smoker and couldn't be happier!!!

1971 Honda CT90 - literally rode this bike til it was in peices!
1985 XR 100 - loved that bike
1982 XL 125 - a junker, but really fun
1992 XR 600 - my first "big bike", really regret selling it
1997 KX 250 - too scared of it
2002 XR 400 - fun, but I wanted to start racing, so sold it
2002 YZ 250F - probably the best bike I ever rode - it was AWESOME!
2005 KX 250F - was ok
2008 RMZ 250 - JUNK, I hated this bike, it was such a lemon
2008 YZ 450 - never owned it, just raced it a few times
2006 CR 250R - never realized how FUN a two stroke could be! Love my 250!

Lets hear yours. Smile

OOPS - started this thread before I saw the "when did you start riding" thread on page 2. DOH! Pretty much the same thing.
Anyway. Some awesome pics in that other thread!

Comment here, though!

For some, this could be a looong list, but share what bikes you've owned, ridden and raced, and maybe a comment.

I started out on trails and in fields, started track riding, tried a screamer, chickened out, then wanted to get serious about racing right when the 4 strokes were amazing and new, then went back to a 2 smoker and couldn't be happier!!!

1971 Honda CT90 - literally rode this bike til it was in peices!
1985 XR 100 - loved that bike
1982 XL 125 - a junker, but really fun
1992 XR 600 - my first "big bike", really regret selling it
1997 KX 250 - too scared of it
2002 XR 400 - fun, but I wanted to start racing, so sold it
2002 YZ 250F - probably the best bike I ever rode - it was AWESOME!
2005 KX 250F - was ok
2008 RMZ 250 - JUNK, I hated this bike, it was such a lemon
2008 YZ 450 - never owned it, just raced it a few times
2006 CR 250R - never realized how FUN a two stroke could be! Love my 250!
