Joe, to post an image you need to have either somewhere on the net to host that pic, or you need to have found a pic somewhere on the Net.

Then you right click it and get the URL from the properties of that pic (the address of the picture, basically)

Insert it into your post by clicking the IMG button, then right click, paste the URL, then click the IMG button again.

I was lucky enough to have a Fizzy as my first bike, however it was 1995 and all my mates had DT's and NSR's, but it still went like hot snot.

One like this.

Most successful Brit bike ever even with it's Kraut antecedents.
Production eventually topped 200/ day.
175 cc and about 7.5hp.

My first bike was one of those too - but a rigid one!

Ah the memories....

My first bike - a Honda CB200 like this but older with a drum front brake, drop handlebars, 'sporty' paintjob, Cibie headlight and 2 into 1 exhaust!
At 17 I thought it was fantastic. Got me through the oh so rigorous test anyway.

ok dont laugh ,,,,my first bike , i was 16 and cost £50 what a bargain

Mine was a honda cb250 K4. in the days when you could jump on a 250cc with L plates 95mph tops. Quite a big bike to learn really.

Just found a pic - see below

Honda SS50. Bought from a guy up the road, got a brief run through of the controls and then set off...

Wasn't until I got to the junction I realised I had no idea how to stop it

All was fine, pulled in the clutch (durr), turned the ignition off and put me feet down 'till it ground to a halt

Just found this pic of my first bike. CB250 K4 picture taken in 1978. Notice the high quality riding gear - those nylon windcheaters offered loads of protection. I think I progressed to a wax Belstaff when the winter came.

Like most of us I wish I still had it. these are going for upwards of £800 on e-bay even for a really tatty one.

Speak for yourself !!!

Cant find a pic, but mine was a Suzi GP100.
Loved that bike.
Got me all the way down to Devon via all the minor roads from up ere in Durham; Took SEVENTEEN hours!!! Was on L-plates at the time so no Motorway work!
Was even better when she fired out the baffle at some point when I wasnt looking and from then on she sounded louder than my Falco!!!
Got another 10mph outta her too!
At least until the crank melted a few months later...
