My first bike was a used Yamaha Seca II, and I wish I knew then what I know now about inspecting and buying a used motorcycle; the Yamaha's chain ended up snapping during a ride, and I spent a mint on repairs that could have been avoided.

Have you bought a used motorcycle that turned out to be more trouble than it was worth? Share your story here!

in college I bought a Honda 175 that sure seemed to perform...found out later that the racing cam tends to blow up the top end!!!
