Tough. I loved them all (almost). Had many bikes but not many pictures in the 1950/1960 era. Warning: most of these pictures are 205...
1953 Velocette MAC 350. That bike gave me a Venezuelan and a South American championship ![]() 1954 Gilera Saturno Corsa, 1954 Venezuelan champion ![]() Fast forward, several bikes, no pictures. 1972 BMW R75/5 ![]() 1975 R90S - I'd love to have one of those today... ![]() 1986 K75. That bike did about a dozen Reg Pridmore CLASSes. The last one was at Watkins Glen. It turned over the 200.000 mile marker at full throttle on the track. ![]() 1999 R1100RT. 175.000 (s)miles ![]() 2002 R1150Rt-lite - the bike I modified most to my liking ![]() 2005 R1200GS - sold 2 month ago, after 180.000 (s)miles ![]() Always the best bike is the one I own. So the best bike is ![]() 2009 Yamaha Majesty scooter! |

I guess I tend to hang onto bikes for longer than most. I've ridden quite a few but I've only owned 5. But fortunately, my favorite is one that I own, I've had this bike for almost 8 years now and, apart from its current charging problems, it's been very reliable and a blast to ride. Here she is wearing her rack and bags for a road trip:

Out of the three bikes I've owned so far this has been my favorite. I just sold her this month, and I know I'm going to regret it at some point more than I already do.

I had these bikes... i swear!
The actual bikes I owned I don't have pictures of, because a certain someone (me) didn't backup my photos of my old computer before the hard drive crashed. This is what they looked like, though...
