Shocked. Absolutely dumb struck that my BMW f650CS is not on this list. ;D
Take a look. Which of these bikes have you owned? Ridden? Hung it's poster on your bedroom wall?
What stories can you tell?

Well...none. ;) Of the first year motorcycles. I have owned a few on that list. 4 of the CB750's, 1 of the SOHC and 3 of the DOHC's, 1 VFR750. I also own 1 that is not on the list but should be. A Kawasaki KX250. one of the first water-cooled, single shock MX bikes. It was my first NEW motorcycles, not a "New To Me" but bought from a dealer new motorcycles.
I never owned or even rode any of those bikes. My list of most important bikes would include the bikes that I originally lusted after.
Bikes like this.

And my first dream bike:

And then there was the first dream bike that I actually owned:

I've got two of the eleven! An excellent list but one could argue the R1, Honda Dream and Sportster should be included instead of a few of their choices.

It did say in the title that it was the most important bikes, not the ugliest!

The closest I've come to that list is owning a Bonneville 50 years newer than the one that made the list.
