Last of a dying breed
Bikes I WANT to own before I die!
Dont go silly now!
Mine are:
- Black Shadow
- 750 widowmaker with drum brakes
- Munch Mammuth (early one)
- 500cc 70's RR bike (any would do, but MV makes me drool...)
- A second 48 Panhead with suicide clutch and extended original springers!
- Hesketh (just because!)
And then I be happy to meet Hades.
Missing my buddy Morepower
Ummmmmmmm,
None!
Happy with what I have. Although the limited edition GSXR is pretty stunning

Just a brand new Speed Triple would do me - in gloss burnt orange.

But the Britten V1000 would be it for me.

This is of course a dream list..
"channellling the Pleideans"
I've been thinking about this a bit as well.
I think my list is:
Triumph Speed or Street Triple.
Harley Davidson: likely a Sportster but maybe an FX as long as it has mid controls, some rear wheel travel and decent front brake. I would LOVE an XLCR but not for the money they now go for. Am test riding an XR1200 in a few weeks
Honda VFR800
Yet another CB750 SOHC: I would ideally like it Wrenchmonkees style, but a CB750F1 would be cool. and usable and not a pointless shed ornament.
New Triumph T-Bird.
Cafe'd up SR500.
None of those are unachievable: although I would like one number plate and ride one at a time if it is going to cost a million bucks a year to road register them all......

"read what Steve says. He's right."
"What Steve said pretty much summed it up."
"I did axactly as you said and it worked...!!"
"Wow, Great advise there DB."
WTB: Hyosung bikes or going or not.

Here's Mine..
Britten
1098r
New Norton Commando
New Norton nr588
early 40's flat tracker replica
plus many many more but that would be on the top of the list

Honda RC30.
Then I will die happily. (Or screaming in a awesome fireball)
"channellling the Pleideans"
RC30 is an excellent choice. I very nearly bought an RC51 last year, till I found out that in fact I owed the IRD money, not the other way around (pissed off? you have no idea....). But yes. add one of either of those to my list as well.

Reckon that would keep me happy for a while.
In the riders seat
If you're talking about the H2 Kawasaki I don't think they ever came with drum brakes, or were you going to retro fit them?
