Great thread.
My first bike was a TS 250 Suzuki similar to this pic.



I was around 17 and 9 mths ready to get my L plates.
Soon after I would buy my brothers bike off him and this was the start of blinging, even back then.
His was a Honda cb750.
Bling included 810 big bore kit irradecent black respray, 4 into one, flat bars and more. it was a great bike until I somehow managed to break the cam in half right in the middle!
Arrr the good ol days.
