I've been wanting to put together a collection of the bikes I owned. There are precious few pics of them, but they do exist.
Let's see yours too!!

Not strictly my bike. It was my dad's Honda CB350.
My little brother and me fell in love there and then. I think I ended up riding the bike more than my dad. He was a flight engineer at SAA and would go overseas for 10 days at a time. I'd ride the bike when he wasn't there, all around the plots.

Mine:-
Honda MT50. The side cover was stolen on the 3rd day I had the bike. I never replaced it.
Loved the bike! Took me to visit a LOT of girlfriends!!

Bought it in pieces. Restored it and rode it around Germany. The bike attracted a lot of attention.
