    Dosen't time flw when you enjoy yourself. Just reasised that 10 years ago today I passed my motorcycle test.... and have never looked back.

    Having ridden everything from a 50cc scoot to a Hyabusa to a 1937 Velocette, I've yet to find a motorcycle I don't like, but this is only a part of the pleasure. I guess the best bit has been riding to the best places and meeting the best people in the world.

    Cheers guys.

    98 days here! And I've ridden a Yamaha YBR 125 and a GS500. ;D

    Man I love having OCD.

    Congrats, hope you enjoy the next 10 years just as much

    Blimey Jon! You just jogged a memory! And a Strange coincidence has come to pass.
    I just checked my license and it was 27 years ago today that i passed my motorcycle test!

    Started riding an AP50 at 16 but didn't pass my test until I think it was 83 or 84 & yes that is 1983 or 1984. I remember because I bought a brand new black MZ125 to learn on.
    Ah memories

    Happy 27th Nelly!!!! [smiley=beer.gif]

    The Best bike.... oh that's hard. Every one has been good, some better in one are than others.

    The Busa was effortless speed.... my god that could haul ass....
    The Velo sounded the best..... I could listen to the exhaust and inlet note all day...
    The superdreams were the most comfortable. I don't know why...
    The CBR was brilliant for hooning about Silverston....

    ...and the cub is just plain fun!

    But...

    If I had to have one bike, I'd have my Sv. Looks good, sounds good, is reasonably comfortable and goes well. Have had it eight years and have never tired of riding it.
