Bikes I've Owned - What Say You

Which 1980’s KTM’s were those? I had a 1984 250 MX/C. I thought the motor on it was unreal.

If Yamaha made the 82/83 IT 175 as it was back then with a few updates, I’d buy one immediately.

My list:

1974 Yamaha TY80
1976 Yamaha TY175
1982 Honda XR200R
1984 KTM 250 MX/C
1986 Honda CR250R
1988 Yamaha YZ250
1991 KTM 250 MX
1993 Honda CR250R
1996 KTM 620 R/XC
2000 Yamaha YZ250
2001 Yamaha WR426F
2006 Yamaha WR450F
2007 Suzuki RM250
2009 Honda CRF 250X
2015 Honda CRF 250R
2015 KTM 250 XC-W

Some really great bikes. I’ve been really fortunate to ride alot over the years.

The list is in the exact order that I had them.
Some of the bikes overlapped each other and some were when I doubled back and bought the same bike after trying a different route and regretted the change!
I got into vintage bikes and had a couple of the bikes I wished I coulda had when they were new models!
Some were really great and I wished I coulda kept, some were rotten POS’s that I regretted immediately!
Some had a significant meaning based on where I was in my life at the rime! All of them were fun and I’m glad I had them along on this crazy life-long moto journey!

Hmm, I'll try to do this also. I'll leave any ATV's I owned out..

No Hondas for me. I've raced a few other bikes that aren't on the list for periods of time but they were dealer loaners, borrowed etc. so I didn't actually own them.

Hmm, I'd say that '84 and '85 were actually 200's.

I'm riding a '79 in vintage hare scrambles now. Great little bike.

I raced the 86 KTM 250 MX in San Diego and played in Ocotillo Wells alot. Yes it was fast, but was not good at turning on a track. Conversely, it was very stable at 70 in a sand wash!

I did not count my sons bikes or our many pitbikes. he started in 1992. from 92 until now he has had many more than me. I bought his bikes until 2012

OK, I will add to the obsession. In order...all the bikes I have raced. Serious race years from 90-95 probably went through 3-4 bikes each year. Lucky to have been apart of the golden years of moto...70's & 80's!
