What can I say? I'm now 32, I got my first bike at 19, a 1982 Yamaha XJ550 (Maxim). Saw it for sale on the side of the road and fell in love with it at first sight and bought it that day, never having been on a bike before. After 3 years a drunk driver took that one away, along with a few years of my life. Had a few bikes since then, all cruisers, never found one I really liked enough to commit to more then a few months on. Wasn't impressed with the EX250 in the pictures, but when I saw one in the showroom, I had to have one. Paid in full, cash for my 2007 :D Would have rather had a Candy Plasma Blue one, but I like my Black one just fine.
