650 single (Suzuki Savage). Not much more git-up-and-go than a Honda Rebel. :) Rode that for 6000 miles or so before upgrading.

Suzuki Marauder 800, then a Honda Shadow 750, then a VTX 1300, and now an RC51. Relatively near future: something big, either Italian or a Japanese exceptional performer.

1988 Yamaha FZ600.

Started in the dirt @ 14..First street bike @ 17 was this yamaha 550
