Am I over it?

[digsaw]

been there and tried most things but all ways returned to bikes,still have launch for the salt flavour,cbr400 for a bit of speed an fun,tt500 for adventure rides,xt200 for a bush bash,ty250 for playin in the mud,350 and 500 bsa prewar for classic racing and if i feel like a slow jaunt down the coast the 1948 350 royal enfield is sweet,then a good lawn mower for earning the brownie points so i can go play wiv my toys heheeeee

*This* is why my post-Zeal ride will not be a sprotbike.

I've been going through the same thought process for the last couple of years too.
One week I think I want another sport bike .....
The next a cruiser....
The next a dirtbike...

Then a boat .....

I cant really offer advise because I haven't sorted out my own delema. (sp)
I'm sure if we could all afford it. we would have 6 bikes in the Gargre to choose from .. alas financial constraints prevent this perfect world from forming.

How about a CruiserDirtBoat (tm) bike ???

LOL
all i could afford is maybe a bath tub with bmx wheels stuck on it & a wooden spoon for propulsion... but i'd fill it with ice & 4 dozen steinies & set sail, oh man now we're talking.

The problem with riding fast on the road is that sooner or later it'll catch up with you! (either the cops or you'll end up hurtin).

or if you buy a faster bike the cops aint going to catch u and you will hit stuff that hard you'll go straight past hutin

you're not the only one Dave. I'm investigating motards at the moment (lots of fun, heaps of torque but most have run out of puff over 150kmhr) for the same reasons (although I haven't worked out how to pillion on most of them yet!) but its still up in the air.

I think a motard might be an option for me also in a year or so.

They seem altogether more practical than most sports bikes - less extreme seating position, less top speed, and allow for holiganism at much lower speeds than a 600-1000 sports bike.

Brilliant bikes for commuting and weekend blats I think.

My solution to the problem you're having was a naked sport/cruiser (XJR1300/ZRX1200 type) and a dirtbike (250 range)... Go test ride :sly:

I figured I wanted it all so I sold my TL1000S and replaced it with an FZR400R and an XR600R (soon to be motarded..). This way I figured I could have variety in riding styles. Only downside is paying double the rego and the work involved in converting the XR... Maybe sometime in future I'll get a KDX200 or something for offroad..
