How many bikes have you gone through?

Just bought my first lil dirt bike last month, still have never ridden one though. But im doing the Cornerspin school next weekend.

 

72 rm90
72 sl350
70 dt360
85 xs400
79 kz650
86 vf500
89 gsxr750
79 sr500
79 sr500 (race bike)
03 sv650 current street bike
ex500 (race bike) sold
72 cb350 (race bike GP class)
72 cb350 (race bike production class)
ns50 (pit bike)

 

Shouldn't there be a daytona 675 on that list, or did I buy some other guy's parts?

 

KZ125
ZX7
KZ400
KX 65
CBR600RR
NSR50R
CR250R
CRF50
Katana 600
GSXR600
1986 GSXR750 LE
GSXR750
GSXR1000

R1
YZ85 Sumo
Pitster LXR 188
Pitster LXR 155
Pitster X4
Pitster X2

Bunch of 4 wheelers in there as well.

 

That list for me is short:

The Bandit was the first bike I ever bought for more than a thousand bucks and the first one less than ten years old. I'd like to get another, put GSXR suspension on it, build the motor, do some bodywork, etc.

The TL was the first (and only) streetbike I ever bought brand new, and it is still the most fun, most character filled - rough around the edges - hell of a good time on the street - bike I've ever ridden. I'm always looking for one that's the right price and not beat to shit.

The 07 YZ250f was the best dirtbike I ever bought, and was perfect for me for just about everything. Awesome dirtybike, never should have sold it.
