Probably about 15-17 years experience. I've had the following:

Quads/Trike:

1984 ATC 185S (junker)
1987 250R Fourtrax (junker)
1987 Tecate 4 (decent)
1991 LT250R (good quad, until I let Cycle Tech work on it)
1992 250X (nice, bought new, boy, wasn't THAT a bummer going from the R's)
2002 400EX (nice, current)

Couple of dirtbikes thrown in for good measure:

1984 CR 125 (JUNKER)
1989 KX 250 (clean bike but nasty, I'll admit it, that one was too much for me!)

Street:

1989 FZR 600 (UGLY)
1993 CBR 600 (nice bike)

If I took the time to add up all the money I lost on most of these, I'd probably run the vaccuum hose into the window of my truck. I've never had much luck recouping $ on these deals.

About 15-17 years here. Started on an old 70cc 3 wheeler and worked up through a couple more 3 wheelers, a couple diff. bikes, then onto 4x4 atvs and sport atvs.
