Oh what memories, my first bike was a used 1976 Kawasaki KZ750 twin,
it was a very fast bike and was a forerunner to the crotch rockets that followed.
Eventually got a Honda Shadow Sabre, and road that for quite awhile and end up with my last bike,
a 2007 Triumph America.
Loved that bike the best, but decided to hang up the cleats a couple years before buying in TV.
Glad I road as long as I did...great memories!
