First Bike - This One For The Old Farts.

G'day.

One of the young puppies on this forum made a mention of my age in a recent thread which got me to thinkn - I get the sense that at least a few of the members have " been around for a bit " and from that, must be some good 1st ever owned, road legal, bike stories:

Mine was a RED Ducati 250 Desmo, 1968 model, This was years before they came out with the mass produced V twin and was a very little known brand, then, in OZ. I bought it in 1971 - here in OZ your first chance to ride legal on the roads was at age 16 n 9 months.. It had a great megaphone pipe, sounded like a Mack truck - and could smoke all the mates on their honda CB 250's, etc..

Come on - what was your first....
