my first real motorbike was a 1976 Kawasaki KZ900 ....was a very fast bike for the time....lucky I didn't kill myself on it

This is a picture of one....but this pic is not me or my bike, as we didn't have digital cameras back then

That is lovely.

I’d have to adjust the offside front indicator though.

Traded it for a Piaggio Liberty 150iABS.
You can see my reflective 3M red pin-stripe and the front fender extender held by 3M tape only (no holes drilled), the mirror stem extenders from the UK, and golden adjustable levers from Japan. That's an Ermax sport screen from France - so much better than the head-battering stock screen. Flashing tailblazer brake bulbs and DrPulley sliders.
Like the little red Piaggio much better than I ever did the 489lb Burg! Maybe if it'd been Forza red!

2017 Triumph Bonneville, which I still have. A joy to ride and a joy to look at.

My first bike was a 2009 50cc Honda Metropolitan that I rode 3400 miles. I sold it to buy my current 2017 PCX . Most likely my last bike since I turn 72 this year but I still ride I'm not planning on quitting for a few more years now. Just wish I had started riding earlier in life but at least I did start at 60.
Ride fast and keep it between the fences!

Good choice in rides there hondamatic! My first bike bought new was a red/white 1968 Honda 50 step-thru. Rode that thing hard and it just came back for more. MANY bikes later I just sold my Yamaha SR400 and bought a new Honda 2021 PCX…Great scooter! It may possibly be my last bike…but I you never know!😉

Be safe & Enjoy the ride! Cheers
