Great first bike. Hard pressed to find anything better to get around a university campus.

Re: What was your first bike?

Assuming a 50cc Peugeot doesn't count (approx. '75), it'd be my '08 GZ250! The Peugeot was good for 40-45 mph and did not require a driver's license, helmet or insurance at the time. Although I did manage to get a ticket for going the wrong way (on the sidewalk, no less) on a one way. Got stolen and I replaced it with a less elegant American model. I don't remember what happened to that.
