First Motorcyle

Help Support Ducati Forum:

My first motorcycle was a Suzuki JR50 Dirt Bike at the age of 3, was racing motocross by 5 all the way up to the age of 24 where I started to focus on my career, and realize the dreams of sustaining a motorcycle career wasn't going to come to fruition to meet the lifestyle I enjoyed. From that I went to a Suzuki DS80, Honda CR85 big wheel, Yamaha YZ125, Yamaha YZ250, Yamaha YZ450F, then have stayed with Honda CRF450Rs since. Street bikes my first was a Yamaha R6, Yamaha R1, Ducati Panigale 1199, and now my Ducati Panigale V4.
 
I first learned to ride in high school. My dad thought it would be a great idea to have my brother and I learn on a Suzuki 400cc two stroke! Me with my ...... throttle control on a powerful bike, got that thing wrapped up and let out the clutch. I was instantly looking at the sky and wheelied it until the bike hit the house. My dad's like, "what happened!" LMAO, not the best bike to learn on dad!

Fast forward a few years at 24 years old. I had a job that didn't pay very well at all and my best friend goes out and buys a brand new CBR_600. So, now I have to have a bike and go out and get a brand new 2004 Suzuki GSX-R600. It was my first bike, I don't have any digital pics of it. That was the best worst decision I ever made!

First pic of me on a bike - maybe 1965(?) on a fairground ride in Rhyl - Wales - Could say this is where the bug started ..plus, me dad rode BSA A7 so i was always jumping on the back and throwing a tantrum cos my feet couldn't reach the pedals
