Kawi 660 enduro great for running back and forth the 60 miles to work until the ex sold it because she didn't want me to have it any longer.
 
We just moved in on the 5 acres, it must have broke.[ can`t remember]...not much room in the small trailer at first.. Jose try concentrating on the classic motorcyle.:p
 
I probably had the most fun on my 75 Z-1B, the fastest version of the famous Kawasaki 900.
In 79, I had a Honda CBX six cylinder, also lots of fun, a street racing machine, it couldn't be beat.
In 83 I got a new Suzi GS 1100, also the fastest thing available at the time, trouble was, by 83 nobody would race me except Gary Whitmire, my mechanic. Last time I checked, Gary held several drag racing world records.
Trouble was he always brought his bike to a race on a trailer.
My Yamaha RD 350 was lots of fun in the mountains. Possibly the best handling bike ever made, it would scorch bikes three times as big on a twisty mountain road.
 
Second favorite... Yamaha XS1100 full dresser... loved it for touring Colorado:)

A-con the first time I got beat on my XS1100 was by the Suzuki GS1100
6 cyl CBX what a cool bike that was high reving sounded like a McClaren indy car... forgot all about that CBX rocket!
 
Don`t blame me its the wife.. she`s a "packrat' but she keeps me happy, and she will be 51 in july... [this is her last month]... Now back to the Motorcycles [I gave you your own thread CJ the wonder years]

Funny thing is when I take a picture of my place I always look whats in the Background. Ol' cjcj jsut takes pictures of Messy rooms and Crooked hanging pictures :)
 
I'd rather push a harley than ride a rice burning sewing machine.:)

CJ, is that Kramer? Is he a relative?;)
 
Harley I think that's a morph between Kramer and JJ!
CJ nice old classics...those weren't the curlers for your perm were they?
 
1956 Cushman Eagle or 1961 Cushman Silver Eagle, buy them for $25 or $50 in April and ride them all Summer! Can almost smell the oil & gas!!! John

Wasn't the guy who played Kramer, Michael Richardson, recently "kicked out" of show business for being, get this, a RACIST?

And CJ has a shrine to Michael Richardson?
 
Who's Michael Richardson? Are you confusing Michael Richards with the Gov. of New Mexico?:rolleyes:

..back to the topic...my first bike was a Suzuki 1500 Intruder with cobra pipes, lowered, corbin seat...lots of chrome...never failed me, fast & dependable...hence, noharleyyet.

no, he had already been "kicked out"....thats why he was doing stand-up.

Cj, the baby's Mo-hawk is cool.......did it grow on its own like that?He reminds me of baby "Joe Dirt".
