[Really?]

I liked most all of them but the one that stands out the most was my '80 XS Eleven Standard.

[70CB750]

CZ250
CBX750

The CZ was the first,  but the CBX was the one

[Robbnc]

Honda SL100 , it was a big step up from a Trail 90.

[cyclepsycho]

My first bike was a 74 Honda CT90.  I wish I still had it.
Over the years, I've owned a LOT of motorcycles From AJS to Zundapp.
I used to buy the Kawasaki KZ1000P Police bikes at the local auctions.  I've had 3 of them and I really enjoyed them.
My current favorite is my 2004 BMW R1150RT

My LEAST favorite bike was a 79 Harley XL Sportster.  What an abysmal piece of crap.

[fmctm1sw]

I started out back in the day with a little yellow Yamaha 80.  Fun times.  My least favorite was an old Suzuki DS125.

[srbakker]

2000 Honda VFR800
2007 Triumph Tiger
2007 Triumph Speed Triple
1975 CB750K

The CB750 is in pieces on my garage floor, so it's hard to say how much I like it yet, although it's already caused tears of joy and frustration and more then a little bleeding.  However, the Speed Triple is probably the most rewarding bike I've ever ridden.  It's a really nice balance of modern handling and weight, but it still responds well to a little heavy handed manhandling from time to time.  It makes me grin every time I get on it.

[bikerbart]

the speed triple is my dream bike.so is the VFR,like your choices

[srbakker]

Well, throw your wrench set in a tailbag and ride on up to Chilliwack sometime then.  We can wrench on something for a while then go riding, because you're only about 40 min from me!

[bikerbart]

Cool.I'm relatively new to the northwest,but for you its the southnorthwest,I haven'treally rode around B.C.yet.Wife is from Vancouver so we go there a lot.Be happy to take you up on the ride.

[demon78]

Triumph Bonneville 60 or so Honda cb 77 super hawk with a dust bin on it for a small bike it would go  Honda s90 even though I busted my shoulder on it, Triumph Thunder Bird I was starting to modify it for the Desert (better bars Bates super comfortable seat), my old cb 650 and maybe my Ariel when it's finished and on the green lanes.
Bill the demon.

[Cuts Crooked]

!972 650 Triumph Tiger that I swapped out the jugs & pistons in and made it into a 750.

[dave500]

84 yammie it250,i dont know what spec they had in the states but over here they were a thinly disguised yz with lights and indicators etc.

Liked them all. The 600rr is an amazing motorcycle. All the others had a charm all their own. I wish I owned them all now.

[dhall57]

I had 5 Honda's growing up in the 70's, and I can't really say I had a favorite. I guess I should say at the time the one I had was my favorite
Past bikes-
1970 CT70
1971 SL175
1974 CB360
1975 MT250
1976 CB550
After selling my CB550 in the late 70's I was bikeless for 20 years. As I think back now I'm not sure how I did that, but you know getting married, raising kids, etc.
current bikes-
1970 CB750KO
1976 CB750K6
1997 HD Wide Glide

Maybe my favorite or should I say the most important instead was my 1970 CT70 my 1st Honda. It got me so into the fun and excitement of riding motorcycle's along with the movie ON Any Sunday in 1971 (the best motorcycle movie ever made) that fun and excitement is still with me over 40 years later

[Rocking-M]

the one I happen to be on at the time.

[boatsdickson]

My only 1 - 1978 836k8   ...   Boats 

[my78k]

I would have to say my Yamaha MX100. Had it for a few years from 12 to 15 years old....used to ride it all over Prince Edward County's backroads and chase my buddy who had a XR250. That little 2 stroke would hang with the XR until about 90 km/h then he would roast me....

First real tast of freedom!

[Stev-o]

My fav bike now is my 836 K4.  Another fav was my '78 Kaw 1000 LTD. Rode it all over the country, great bike.

[Dyrden]

1998 YZF-R1 in Yamaha blue.  I was on a waiting list for months, read every article, every test ride and was practically foaming at the mouth until it arrived.  I bought one never seeing it in person, at full price, cash.  Took the title with me as I tried to keep it under 5k(break in period) on my first ride.  The perma-grin was instant, it thankfully it lived up to the hype and fit my riding style well.  Ive had a few more since and still love them.

[KRONUS0100]

first street bike will always be my favorite.the 90 Suzuki GS500E. 
My Honda Cb750F is the one I have hung on to thru all the other bikes that have come an gone.

[Kong]

By far my Harley Davidson Deuce is the nicest bike to ride I've every owned, probably the best looking for a near stock bike too.  It is comfortable, it has plenty of power, it had a more than adequate top speed for me, it holds plenty of fuel but is economical despite its size; it gets better milage than my 550 Honda.  Oh, and it sounds great.  Needless to say its fuel injected which means near instant starts, no petcock, and the ability to tune the bike at the computer.  It is extremely well made too, easily the best made bike I've every owned.  On the down side it was quite expensive, but now that its paid for I really don't care any more.

[DavePhipps]

I can't say I have real fave.
I love my FZR600 on twisty roads, but hate it in parking lots.
The CB550 and 500 are my favorites for tooling around and riding 2 up
My old 85 VF 700 rocked but, it seemed too much in between sport bike and standard. If it had been more focused one way or the other it would have been my #1. I loved that V4 motor  

[Damfino]

My first 'bike' experience (early '70's)...

First bike I owned (bought new in '77)

My favorite since 2008...

Oh and my favorite color is Honda Red!
