Bikes had:
    1974 Yamaha DT 175A
    1975 Honda MT 250
    1975 Honda CR 125
    1974 Yamaha MX 250
    1973 Honda CR 125
    1974 Honda CR 250
    1973 Suzuki TM 125

Bikes have:
    1974 Husky CR 400
    1974 Kawasaki KX 450
    1974 Bultaco Pursang 360

The DT and MT were brand new when I was an ankle biter.
The other's I can't remember exact year I had them due to killing too many brain cells from intoxicating beverages.
Cheers.
Nat.

Got married.....

got divorced..

Sorry mate, I don't know whether that bit was supposed to make me laugh, but I did, for a moment, some reason I thought it as hilarious :D ;D

Nothing wrong with those Ts185's either. So much fun for buck. I am addicted too, last forever. If you get a Sweet & sour pit bike instead, nothin but two weeks of misery, and thats if you get a good one ::)

I bought this when it was a couple of years old

Had it for a few years, I loved it so much that when I had to sell it to pay for a dog divorce Lawyer, I sold it to a brother, dearly hoping it would come back one day. Freaking long time, but it just has, after a massive amount of years. I have to go and pick it up from near Grafton, NSW.
He said the plastics are shit, but he has just spent $800 on a rear shock and rear end bearing service/rebuild and fork service at that bloke in Coff's with the good rep, the one that knows his stuff.
Funny on the North coast of Nsw, they love the early 200katos, and they fondly call these a poor mans Kato, you can stop laughing now >:(  ok, stop ::)

Anyhow she was one of my most favorite little darlings once.
It was a period when I was working my arse off, but when that alarm clock screamed, I used to think, crap, not again >:( Then I would remember this little babe was waiting to get me to work, play and explore. Middle of winter, middle of summer, I didn't give a shit, I loved the little darlin. Never broke down, never let me down. Always waiting for me with a smile, sweet little thing.

Don't worry mick, i did it bloody twice  :o
Nice  capable ride those PE's. use to borrow one of those from a mate in Taree. Lucky to score your old bike back. I only know where one of mine is and that's the GT750 and he isn't selling.
 
if you manage to find time and if your on the way to Gloucester take a spin in the Kiwarrak state forest between Taree and Nabiac, brilliant bit of riding country. Specially the southern boundary trail.

Yep, not only dirt bikes.
Had from the 70's:
    Honda 500/4
    2 x Norton 850 Mk 3
    Honda 750/4
    Kawasaki 900
    2 x Norton 750 
    71 Harley FL
And then broke it up with,
    67 Sporty
    88 Softail Custom
Even today still have a 72 Norton 750.
Finally modernized myself with a 2011 Softail Standard (103ci).
