    Wanted. Big Two Smoker road bike.

    Big being > 250cc.

    Anything considered, any age. Project through to minter. Budget up to $4K, but could go to more for the perfect machine .

    Need a ringa a ding ding fix. Naked bike preference, but I'm not fussy.

    EDIT: Preferably something with a rego still in the system

    We're all fucked. I'm fucked. You're fucked. The whole department is fucked. It's the biggest cock-up ever. We're all completely fucked.

    Thanks, nice bike. But not road going, and doubt it could be registered.

    The T500 seems to be getting snapped up these days,pity,as they were ignored for so many years....there are still GT750s around,the best big smoker around I reckon.The TS400 was one of the most rugged big bores,they would kill the rider before he killed the bike.I hated the 380 and 550 triples,but that's my problem,not yours.

    Yamaha twins and big K triples have attracted big bucks long ago,that's a pity.I'd like to find a Big Horn,but they were rare even in their day....Yamaha big singles have been around longest,from the old 360 to the 490 and WR500,you'll most likely come across more of these than anything else.Then there are the Euros,a CZ400 is spastic scary shit though....Jawa made that 350 twin for many years,and it was a good motor....um,how about a Jupitor?
