In the 70's I started out on motorcycles. First a pos Honda 90 and then to a new Honda XR 80. I then moved up to a MX 175 Yamaha, these were great bikes. Also had a 96 Yamaha TW 200 street/ trail bike and that thing was dangerous on the trails with that wide back tire. My first quad was a new 90 Yamaha Timberwolf. I then got a 98 Honda Recon. Both were good quads and we thought we could go anywhere on the 2x4's. I then progressed to my present ride, 00 Kodiak 4x4. Since then I've had a Polaris 300 4x4, 99 Quadrunner 4x4 and a 95 Kodiak as 2nd rides. The Quadrunner is for sale and looking for another bike to speculate on...[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]

At first I had an LT50 A(1984) still got it in my garage. Then I moved up to a stock blaster and now I got a new Blaster and have it totally tricked out for MX. My next quad will be a Raptor or an Outlaw Banshee with Duncan Racing National motor kit and all sorts of other trick goodies.

Couple of old 5hp go-karts.
kx80.
lawn tractor w/o blade (it was really fast [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] )
230 quadsport.
kx125.
1970-72 (I think) trail70
300ex.
350 warrior.
yamaha blaster.
yamaha banshee.
400ex

'01 drz400s (dual sport)

The only things left in the barn are the banshee, 400ex, drz400s, 1 go kart...and an actual lawn tractor with a blade!! Working on restoring an old pilot too.

They have all been good bikes except for the 230 quadsport...what a hunk of junk that was.
