How many bikes have you owned?

[Radar]

For me, if you count the ones I have had lying about for spares or whatever, it is about 25-30 or so.

Best? RD350YPVS (the first one of three to pass through my hands)
Worst? KH250

[GSXR1000]

My 1982 CB250RS did me proud.

Despatched for 60,000 miles and then sold for just £200 less than I paid for it!

[GSF K1]

Yep, I cant argue with that.. it wasnt powerful or very pretty, but it would run forever! I think Radar still has his “Delux” model.

Go out with a BANG… Light a fart!

[GSXR1000]

I had the original RS250A and then a brand new RS250DC (I think that was the designation).

The later one had electric start and a better chain from what I remember.
Chain wear being a big problem with the early version.

[GSXR1000]

PS

BHP-wise I think they were rated at 26, the 250 Superdream being heavier and a mere 27bhp.

[Radar]

Yep still got the CB250RS-D (Electric Start) model. 26bhp. Off the road due to a mangled ignition switch. Hope to get it sorted over Xmas. Had a CB250RS-A (Kick start) years ago, sold it in November 1986 and the lad who bought still has it and uses fairly regularly.

Great bikes, under-estimated. Sounded good, handled ok and felt better than the Superdream.

CB250N Wet dream, first and only brand new bike.
GSX1100F

I can’t believe that some of you have had millions of bikes, don’t you get attached to one and keep it? Are you the same with your cars? I can feel a new topic coming on.

Be seen and be Safe!
