what was your first ride?
I started off on an old Kawasaki Prairie 250 three wheeler. I put about 1,000,000,000 hours on that thing. Moved on to Polaris Trailblazer, then went dry for a few years until I got my warrior last year. Then I sold it to jump on my Rap.

Honda XL100. I am surprised that thing still runs today. I remember one time I rode it about half an hour and it had NO power. I could figure out what was wrong. I noticed it was getting hot so I thought maybe my points slipped and timing was advanced. I rode back home (about 3 miles), noticing my clutch was acting up. While waiting for the engine (extremely overheat at this point) to cool, I pulled the oil dipstick. The crankcase was dry and smelled like a burnt clutch. There was no oil in it. I knew it leaked around the countershaft seal, but that was no reason to check the oil.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

My dad bought my brothers and I a Yamaha YMF 80cc Moto 4. I was 12. I think that is right. It was blue. They did not require training courses or anything like that so I jumped on shifted all the way up to 3rd gear ran into the split rail fence in our yard and messed up my leg. My brothers came running over screaming "Did you wreck the bike???" I said No, but I hurt my leg. They said, "Good, we thought you broke the bike, they pushed the bike back up to the house, while I am still laying there in the grass with blood running down my leg. ( I still have the bike and my kids are riding it now.) Needless to say, I was not even allowed to ride the lawn mower after that. Then two years later, my dad bought me a Honda Moped because he was tired of taking me back and forth to the ball field. I managed not to wreck that and my mom just sold it at a garage sale last year for $100.00. Then, for my 31st birthday Greg bought me my Scrambler X. (I wanted diamond earrings)

PS I had a go cart too. I ran into a telephone and about broke my nose so then my dad thought a horse would be safer. I think this is what happens when you grow up with brothers.
