Show us pics of you on your first motorcycle

[RedFoot]

Mid-way through college I got motorcycle fever so a friend and I decided to get little 80cc's to blast around the woods one summer. 1984 KD80.



The keen observer will note the vice-grip holding the brake lever together.



My first street legal bike was a neglected '78 Kz1000



Following an afternoon's work it was looking a little better

Not my first bike, that was a 50cc Honda I picked up for $60 with TWO helmets! (still have the scar on my knee from when I crashed it going too fast down a dirt road) The first real bike was this '72 R75/5 I bought in Germany in 1974. This photo was taken in Spring 1977 after many miles and a friend crashing it. Sold it a month later to fund my moving to Hawaii later that year.

This isn't my bike, but I had the same little Honda 50R in 1985. It was cool to see one here in Guatemala.

My first road bike (will have to try and find a piccy of my old TS185) a XS250RK. Yes, it was pretty terrible - had it for about 3 months...

That's my little sis goofing off on it - must show the pic to her boys...

This is my first time putting pics up on here so we'll see how it goes.

A picture of my cousin a few years back on my first bike an xr100. I've had it for about 13 years now.


And my current offroad ride. An 06' crf250r


Sadly no pics of my new streetable ride yet. And yep I'm another young gun.

From the way the page source looks, I would say the link you are using isn't an image file; it's an HTML file (one of the links in your original post looks like "http://....photobucket.com/.../250.jpg.html" -- the ".html" at the end is a dead giveaway). The trick I use on Picassa should work for you, too: go to your photobucket page, view the image that you want to link to, then *RIGHT* click (two-finger click on a Mac, I believe), and select "View image in a new tab". In theory :) that should open up just the JPEG in a new tab. Copy the URL from the address bar, and past that as the link address here. HTH!

Yamaha YDS1 t was in pieces in a neighbors barn, traded him a Go-Kart for it. Pop helped me get it running again,(no small feat) I was 12 and it was 1964.
