Had a Honda SH50 then a Kawasaki KH100 at 16/17 but only for commuting as I couldn't afford a car, no real interest.
Fast forward 23 years, when they built a production block on our car park at work and we all had a mile long walk every morning.
The motorbike park was still on site and the company run a scheme where you get £200 a year for non-work based training courses (guitar, sewing, and most importantly CBTs!), so it was a no-brainer.
Bought a 125 Virago, got the biking bug and did a direct access.
The plan was to work through a series of 5/600cc bikes to see which I liked the most, Bandits, Hornets, SV's, GS's etc. but it kind of fucked up when I bought the best one first.

Broken, bruised, forgotten, sore,
too fucked up to care any more.
