    Cruiser, tourer or sporty?

    Hi people,

    I was just wondering?, what type of bike the general population of KB rode or preferred. Cruiser, Tourer or a sport bike?

    and what was the most popular here at KB?

    Cheers,

    Monk.

    None of the above. I ride an Adventure Tourer.

    edit: You forgot dirt bikes, enduro bikes, scooters... oh hell, lotsa things.

    It doesn't change anything. Mine is better than yours.

    Depending on my mood... and the weather... and where I am riding to... I ride a Harley Sportster or a BMW F650 dual purpose bike.
    Love both!!!!!

    was once a sports bike, I suppose people would call it a sport tourer now apart from the fact that I've gone mad and made it an uncomfortable bitch.

    In short, a silly sport bike.

    I like them all but I'm most at home on a sport/tourer. In a utopic world I'd have one of everything
    Oh bugger

    Mine is an adventure-y / tourer-y / commuter-y / (monstrosit-y?) sort-of bike...otherwise known as a BMW f650cs. Which is pretty much an ordinary f650 in drag. Can't sell them (except to women), according to the BMW sales guy where I get it serviced (not where I bought it, obviously).

    I don't care, I like it! Reminds me of the sort of bike Brains (from Thunderbirds) would have designed. Or an (original) iMac. It's nerrrdy.

    Um...ones with 2 wheels?
    And engines, of course...
    Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?
