When I was 15 I bought a used 1983 Honda XL200R. It was 2 years old and looked new with less than 1000 miles on it.
It is the motorcycle that I first mastered and I beat the piss out of it every day.
I lived in Massachusetts and rode the xl200r year round in the woods around a lovely pond. It was all mine, never saw anyone else ride there. I was so lucky to have this growing up and the little Honda was the admission ticket for exclusive use.
I never had a more reliable anything. It would start first kick even when it was well below zero. Jumping snow banks from the street into the yard was a sport I tried to invent with it!
What bike from your riding career do you miss most?
