if you could only own one more bike

[DeanOh]

Id like more than just ONE bike, but this one would come first.
Ducai 999R, I drool everytime I look at it.

[F5 Dave]

The ones I have now (7).

Although I don’t have a road legal adventure bike. . .

And for some reason I have a deviant desire to own a fastback, - course you could never ride it further than you were prepared to push it.


And of course if I could road register a NSR500 Vtwin!!!

And what about a pitbike?

Oh what the heck, pass that magazine I have some more choices, um, Spondon 1400 with nitrous & knobblies. . .

[SpankMe]

Triumph Thruxton. Me loves Café racers.

a yellow 749 Ducati. Wanted to buy one as my next bike but now I'm on the R1 I'm not sure the Ducati will do it for me. Have a 999 that I've been offered a ride on though that could change my mind!!!

A road legal Britten, if it could be legalised without destroying its abilities.

Then the only thing I'd need is the talent to ride it properly.

That's a hard question to answer - so many cool bikes, so little time! I'd have to spend WEEKS if not months test-riding as many as I could. And then I'd probably cheat, choose the most expensive bike I could find, and swap it for more than one bike.

However, my wife has already told me that my current bike is the last bike I'm allowed to own. I think that a few more rides on the arse-torturing seat should convince her that if she wants to ride with me we need to buy at least one more.

Who was it that said five bikes was just the right number? I got into trouble when for a short time I had two... But I think five would be a good number: a dirt bike, a tourer or sports-tourer, a supermotard, a track bike, and a sports bike.

[F5 Dave]

You forgot the Trials bike & the Race bikes.

“However, my wife has already told me that my current bike is the last bike I'm allowed to own.”

Tell her to be satisfied that she’s the last woman you’ll have & if a Guy isn’t allowed his toys his attention wanders & the last point becomes negotiable.

Sheesh! Tell her she has enough shoes! :sly:

[NhuanH]

Duke 998R. Still not sold on the Terblanche 999 shape yet.

Or MV F4 1000 about to come out - the eventual fully tricked, carbon yadah yadah edition of course!

I had "track bike" in there - that's what I meant.

Tell her to be satisfied that she’s the last woman you’ll have & if a Guy isn’t allowed his toys his attention wanders & the last point becomes negotiable.

LOL. Well, she probably already knows that, but I could always reserve it as a blackmail tool. Except it wouldn't work...

Sheesh! Tell her she has enough shoes! :sly:

Well, she has more shoes'n me, but not as many as she could have.

[F5 Dave]

Yeah they can be silly with shoes, I don’t have many pairs, say three for work & 4 casual.

Well. . . there’s the dirt boots, the trials boots (more movement), the touring boots, the sports boots, the race boots.

Oh.

[DEATH_INC.]

Pretty hard to replace the Gixx with anything better.....
And the old turbo's pretty awesome too......
Always had a soft spot for the Benelli tornado,but the augusta thou is pretty trick.
Or maybe something like this....

[Cajun]

Well i have the current bike i got gsxr600 as a track/fun bike, then just something to eat the miles cruising, I love the old indian look so maybe a drifter or a new indian as soon as they get around to puting they own engine it and not use HD ones any more. But other i'm not to fussed really, just something sorta crusier so ya can go be a poser somewhere one day and then next day be poser there on the sports bike dc:<

Couldn't agree with you more

You mean the $80k one ?? I hope one does make it into NZ.

Triumph Thruxton. Me loves Café racers.

Did Triumph (the old Triumph) ever market anything called a Thruxton? Only bike I recall of that name was the Velocette. And THAT was a cafe racer, swept back pipe, rear sets, clip-ons halfway down the fork tubes and a huge Amal GP. Only in black, with gold pinstriping. (even though the pick is silver, or blue, or summat)
