1st Go Cart
Then 78-79 Suzuki 50cc Dirt Bike
Then Suzuki 80DS Dirt Bike
Then Honda 110 3-Wheeler (Wanted Yamaha 125YZ Dirt Bike but dad was not game)
Then Yamaha 125 Dirt Bike (Utility type dirt bike not a racing kind)
Then Yamaha 225DX 3-Wheeler (Happy to get a sportier ride)
Then Honda 250 Big Red 3-Wheeler (Wanted a Honda 250R but dad was not game)
Then Yamaha 350 Big Bear 4x4 (Wanter Yamaha 350 Warrier but dad was not game)
Now Yamaha Raptor 660R (Married and all grown up now)
Next Yamaha Grizzly 660 (Miss my automatic and creaping abilities will still keep the Raptor for all out fun just need a Utility on the farm)

I appreciate what my dad did for me. He moved me up slowly so that I would not kill myself. I had a good friend lose his life when we were in 8th grade riding his new Big Red(that was his first, moved straight from bicycle to Big Red.) My dad being mechanically inclined would always govern my new rides down until I learned to ride and respect them.
