Re: What was your first bike?

1954 Harley Davidson 165cc Hummer 2 stroke single. It was good for 50 mph on a good day. I bought it for $110.00 at the Buffalo NY Harley dealership. It was 1963, and I was 16. No special license required, no training program in existence, and no one that I knew wore any safety gear. Different time for sure.

Re: What was your first bike?

'65 Honda CT200 Trail 90. Back in the early 70's Dad used it for hunting; me and my brother putted around the yard on it. Of course, almost ran it straight into a tree while showing off. Mom went over the handlebars trying some off-road stuff. I'm just glad nobody got their feet tangled up in the spokes, or that enormous dual sprocket!

Re: What was your first bike?

Firsts:
Bike: A bicycle when I was around 7 years old, a long time ago.
Motorized bike: Solex, when I was 14 or 15. Even longer ago.

Re: What was your first bike?

I had to look up Solex to see what it looked like:
