Then I acquired this Suzuki TS185 field bike:

And my brother got a Honda CR250R motocrosser that we used as a field bike. It was absolutely nuts to ride, and launched many unsuspecting pilots off the back or through hedges. He got it cheap because the gearbox was shot - we rebuilt it on the kitchen table using the Rayburn and the deep freeze to shrink-fit new bearings to the casings (we were both in our teens). Something like this, but in similar cosmetic condition to the 185:

then a Suzuki A100 owned briefly in Aberdeeen to practice on, and I passed my test (pre CBT, etc.) on a borrowed Yamaha something-or-other and set out on the road with my Kawasaki Z400J (the 4 cylinder one) with an 'Alpha' 4 into 1 (about the cheapest exhaust you could get which, with the folly of youth, I proceeded to rip all the baffles out of).

This was my only transport for 4 years and took me the width of the UK on a regular basis, and was my daily commuter when I started work. I resprayed it in my bedroom at University which improved the looks a little. Never let me down.
Then I started getting respectable and got a nice GPz550:

This was my only transport for another few years, and took me all over France and Northern Spain. Then I got my 'dream' bike (one that I had lusted after in my teens) a gorgeous white VFR750 - identical to this picture, and in pretty much the same nick:

...Then we had kids, and it meant that I needed to use a car every day, so the bike got stuck in the garage for a few years, until I eventually faced up to the fact that years were going by without the prospect of me using it, so I reluctantly sold it last year.
Now no bikes.
That could very well tempt me...
I like the bike in the third picture.
Anybody considering a bike, if you can do it. Life's too short etc. Enjoy it while it lasts.
