Had quite a few so far, since the age of 16 in 1979.

Here's my list:

Honda MTX200R (first new bike)
Suzuki RGV250 VJ 21 "grey"
Suzuki RGV250 VJ 22 "grey"
Honda NSR250 MC 21 "grey"
Aprillia RS250 Chesterfield Max Biaggi replica "grey"

Few years without a bike!!

another used MTX200R
Old yamaha XS400 Special
Kawasaki ZX-10 sports tourer "grey"
Kawasaki GPZ400R "grey"
Suzuki GSX400X Impulse "grey"
Suzuki TL1000S 97 model + New Jonway 125 Adventure scooter (piece of crap, kept falling apart!)
Kawasaki KLR650 07 model (old shape) second bike ever bought new!
Kawasaki KLE500 demo (Wife's current bike)
BMW GS1200 Adventure 07 model  *Current bike and the one I am enjoying the most of all!

Always made good profit on the bikes I bought and restored to good as new, especially the grey import 250's & 400's
