What bike gives you trouser feelings?

**MIXONE** · 17th February 2009, 16:49

Triumph X75.

Not to sure if I have seen this on the list.

Mint RC30. Geez, that was easy. Or maybe a Ducati Supermono or an '82 900S2? And a high-barred 2001 R1 for the road, obviously. And a tatty HRC RC30 with twin Moriwaki cans for post-classic racing - you need a race bike too.
Then I'd be happy.

For a Bike that I first saw in '99 and was aghast at it's ugliness ...how times have changed.

A Bike that was never designed to look pretty but now, in my eye , has a powerful, majestic beauty...... nothing on two wheels bones me up like a Hayabusa.

Better pop into the garage for another look .....

When I was just a wee boy I saw the 916 and thought it was pretty cool, thats the only bike I knew or cared to know.

Then after the various incarnations the 998r in black still makes the hairs on my neck stand up, its beautiful, regardless of reliability, wrist pain and not being suited to the road, if the motorcycling heavens parted and motorcycle jesus asked what I wanted out of all ever made it would be that

but if it was unavailable I'd settle for a 1198

Oh, oh, oh - I saw an 851 today!!! I don't see many around, so this was quite exciting for me you see. Only a very quick glimpse as it shot past at a roundabout, but it was very shiny and pretty and red

I'd only just have a couple more red ones.

Perhaps I'm wearing the worngA trousers.

No bikes I've ever ridden have given me trouser feelings.

All the bikes I have owned have made me do the touser thing, you know put the leather trousers with armour on...

**3umph** · 18th February 2009, 14:01

Those KTM RC8's are pretty hornish and would not mind getting a leg over one....

but also on the list would be a 1098

but best overall has to be a Britten

Surely I could list a few of the bikes that I would want to have but these are the ones that I'd stare at it untill it's out of my sight.

Bimota DB7
MV Agusta Senna
MV Agusta F4CC
KTM RC8
A wheelieing Triumph ST1050
A wheelieing Ducati 749/999
A wheelieing Aprilia RSVR
Porsche Carrera GT
