Inherited my grandads C90 at 14....I'll let the pic speak for itself...

Then sold it for an MBX50. Did 30mph when I got it. Spent all my money on boyesen reeds, allspeed exhaust, and K&N..and it did 25mph...

GSX6F in purple/black needed a cheap reliable bike which it was but I hated looking at it

Pepsi RGV (though it was a factory ltd edition with Kevins autograph on the tank!!) and matching leathers was all a bit 'gayboy' in hindsight..

I think it looks pretty cool actually.

Although you'd look better sat on a GP grid

I had a Lucky Strike rep, ran like a bag of crap but I loved it. Actually sold that to get my 900SS.

I've never owned anything embarrassing, I'm the leader of fashion (or blind to it)

I rode a french thing a motobecane I think with pedals it was so slow and hideous and so uncool that I dumped it and said it was stolen.
Bought a GT 185 Suk and kept it the shed Mum Hid the keys but not well enough so i got a set cut and rode it when she went to work only to be grassed up by the next door nieghbour.
waited 7 months booked my test for my 17th birthday and passed no more uncool mopeds.

Blew the engine up trying to keep up with my mates on their FS1E's until I'd saved enough dosh to buy a second hand CG125. Then all my mates went out and bought RD/GT250's I showed them tho, passed my test a month after my 17th birthday and swapped (literally!) the CG for a KH500
