    It was a white 2 seater go cart that me and my sister finely wore out by cutting to many bonut's. Then we had a Honda 125 four wheeler that smoked like a BOMB! Then it was the machine that started my love of atc's an 82 Honda 110 that I put a million miles on. It is finely starting to smoke but it will still start with 1 pull of the rope. I will never sale this machine it is like it is a part of me. I love it.

    First bike I ever rode was a 1978 suzuki ds100 and I was 12. My parents never let me ride anything before that because they knew I would be to crazy on it and kill myself! I still remember actually hitting the power band for the first time. The best feeling ever! Then the first bike I got was a 1985 200x trike! And I still have it!

    The first thing I ever rode was a friend's Puch moped at age 13. The first bike I ever owned was a 1980 yamaha IT175, age 14, almost killed me. That same year I drove my first trike, my friend's 85 Big Red. His father bought a pair of them around 1988 for him and his son, who was about 10 at the time. YIKES! That kid learned pretty quick, though, and never hurt himself too bad...

    The first machine i ever rode/called mine was a go kart that my dad got me when i was probably 11. It was a single seater that had a 8 hp Briggs and Stratton with the governor removed, torque converter and disk brakes, went like heck but also had a really high center of gravity, was narrow, had no roll bars and no seat belt.. Even if you were a full grown man you pretty much had to grab on to the steering wheel for dear life and hope it didn't toss you off like it did me a few times lol

    The first ATV i rode was an old 1980 something Yamaha wolverine maybe a year later and the first trike i ever rode is the atc 90 i just recently aquired

    My first bike was a pw50 when I was 4. As far as a trike, first time I rode one was my neighbors 82 250R. It was a blast.
    My best friend bought it a couple years later. I think he still owns it. That would be about 20years of ownership on his part.
    My first trike was a 350X. I saw it sitting on the lawn of a near by farm with a 4 Sale sign on it. 1200 later I had it packed into the back if a 94 Jeep Wrangler. (Had to take rear tires off and leave rear door open a bit.). I owned it for a couple years before I got around to actually riding it. I just occasionally wrenched on it; replacing a part here and there.
    Since then I picked up a 185S for $20 from a coworker and then three near mint Honda 200 trikes from the same guy for $1000. I've sold a couple. Still have a 200E, 200ES and the 350X.

    Ok, I know this is an older post but hey, I gotta get my ten count right. The first motorized buggy I ever drove, I'm not sure how to classify it. It was called a Trackster and it was made by Cushman motors. It had a Johnson snowmobile engine in it. The first trike I rode was a Honda 200s. Im not sure even what year it was. My Dad and I rebuilt the front end and carb in it. Soon after he bought a brand new 87 Big Red. After I got married I sold mine. A few weeks ago I dug his old Big Red out of his barn where it has sat for 15 nyears and am now working on getting it running again.

    First bike was some plastic electric motorised thing then moved on to..

    First quad: Suzuki LT50 (at age 3)
    First bike: Honda Z50J (at age 4)
    First Trike: Honda ATC250R (at age 18)


    Over the years have had more bikes/quads/trikes than I can hardly remember. I'm always looking for another toy to play with.

    Ride safe all :-)
