I never got around to replying to the ownership survey, but since I found
it interesting reading I thought I'd throw in my two cents' worth:

	Currently owned: 1985 BMW K100RS with BMW bags, tank bag, Progressive
			 Suspension fork springs, and Works Performance shock.

			 1983 Honda XL600R (well used!).

	Previously owned:1965 Bultaco Mercurio 175 (street bike)
			 1967 Bultaco Metralla 250 (street bike)
			 ( Anyone who's never read an owner's manual translated
			 from Spanish has missed out on a real experience, 
			 second only to actually owning a Spanish motorcycle)
			 1973 Honda CB 350F (four cylinder - four pipes)
			 1975 Honda CB 400F 
			 1981 Honda CB 900F (My first new bike; lasted me 50K
			                     trouble-free, wobbling miles)
			 1979 Yamaha RD400F (Daytona Special)
			 1983 Honda VF750F (Interceptor)
			 1981 Kawasaki KL250
			 1982 Kawasaki KZ550H (aka GpZ550 - Box-stock racer)
	Dream Bike: Suzuki GSX-R1100 motor, weight, brakes, and handling
		    in a machine with BMW style and ergonomics.

	
	I am also an MSF instructor in Mountain View, CA and would be happy
	to answer questions about MSF.
