The morning after I first bought her: 2006 cbr1000rr, I love the liter bikes. Her name is "Asuka". (Guess that reference!)

Asuka and Delilah, my first motorsickle, an old '93 CBR900rr. I still love the way those old cbrs look.

my first bike was a 2000 Suzuki Intruder 125

My next bike was a honda bros 400, which burnt oil and did more exploding of fuel out the end than it did in the engine.
here it is at motorcycle live 2011

my 1982 honda ct 185 "skipper". in the time I had it, I dropped it 3 times and crashed it three times (two slipping over in mud, and one by going straight into a curb at night due to having a crappy headlight). it had electrical problems up the waazoo and leaked heaps of oil, but it took me thousands of ks of highway riding (which it wasn't really designed to do) with relatively little problems for how much abuse it copped from me. I was planning on selling it and buying a used cb 400 twin of early 80s vintage (I'd seen a few go on ebay for the right money in the right condition), but then I came across a honda cx 500 on ebay which was titled "SWAP FOR TRAIL BIKE". I didn't really think he'd be interested in my beat up little bike, but I spoke to him and he was actually quite keen on the idea, so now I ride...

my 1981 honda cx 500 shadow. haven't dropped it OR crashed it yet, and its a perfect record I intend to try and keep. it had 90700km on it when I got it, and all I've done to the engine it change the fluids and filters and its taken me to 98618 and still going strong! :D not too long before I clock it back over to zero, lol...

the things been a work in progress with replacing leaky suspension, fitting my top box (my bike is my only vehicle, so I have to have storage space) got the seat reupholstered, getting heated grips - but even though I'm doing all these things to it, the brilliant thing about it (or any of the old cx 500s) is that the engine is a tank. it'll just keep going and going and going and going and going and going and going.... :D

Hey all, I'm considering using a few of the shots in this thread for homepage images in the upcoming site refresh. I'll contact everyone directly to make sure they are cool with that before I pull the trigger. If you DON'T want me to use one of your shots, please DM me directly so I know. Thanks!
