Isn't bike ownership a metaphorical love affair?!
I still comment when I see bikes of yesteryear, 'I had one of those....', and sigh.
My first legal bike was at 16, a Yam DT50M but I had a Suzuki TS185ER for the fields and couldn't better it, well a DT175MX was a close second.
Times have changed, I'd love another but prices have rocketed. Gone are the days where a TS could be bought for £50 and a train set. I blame ebay.
I went through the sportbike phase with my mates and owned 350LC's, GSXR750's and GPZ900's but always kept a dirtbike in the garage.
I lost too many of my mates on the road and my roadbike days were soon over but you'd still find me 'On any Sunday' at the tracks, fields and hills of England and Wales.
I still have the GPZ languishing at the back of my garage, one day I might get her out again....
Hendrix instead of L plate sounds good to me, no self respecting copper could argue that!
