Ok, you've won the lottery (you wish) and, as well as the big house and fast cars, you decide to buy three new bikes to have in your garage.
Which bikes would you buy (money no object) ____________________ Don't do as I do, do as I say! |

Ducati 998 Final Edition

Yamaha XT660X (or some other really cool Supermoto)
I'd probably be using the Honda most of the time...  |

Only three bikes?
Okay.
1. A KTM 640. Preferably in black. Might need to drop the forks for my short legs.
2. A Buell (any sort, not fussy), which I would have rattlecanned hot fluoro pink and silver with black trim.
3. An old XL125 kickstart Honda for haring round town on. Whatever's left of the original paint job will do just fine. ____________________ Not nearly as interesting in real life. |

I'd have to cut down on the bikes I own?
I've actually got four 'main' bikes now, though two don't work:
ZX9 - for 'playing' with and drag racing, when I get it to work.
rs250 - for playing on the public roads.
r6 - trackdays.
dr600 - getting to work, when it works.
I would maybe sort the front suspension on the rs250... unless you can offer me some tips on avoiding speed traps, that's plenty enough power for me .
ZX9... might as well make it a ZX10 or GSXR1000, with the option of an extended swingarm and maybe a bit of tuning work down for drag racing.
The r6 seems to have been doing me fine, maybe one that would be a bit more competitive in racing, but otherwise I'm still not pushing it as much as I can.
Would prefer a sorted supermoto to the dr, but dunno if I want more power for getting to work .
Sorry, dunno if I could manage with just three . |

I would buy the suzuki b-king prototype cos its lovely
Id get the mv augusta F4 litre version
and id get a buell firebolt or something such
But to be honest, 3 bikes would be a tad ott for me.
But use the king for blasts, the mv for trackdays (pose value :p) and the firebolt for commute/quick trips.
Oh and then id spend a couple of hundred grand improving a)housing b)security of bikes. I think a trrench with mines and razorwire at the end of my drive. Machine gun nests. Alarms, seachlights. Etc. ____________________ China traffic/travel bike vid - When I make a sweeping statement, please add the word 'statistically' in to the sentence before you bitch...

I'd have a Honda VRX400 roadster for playing out on,
Probably another Eliminator (250 or 400) for commuting,
And a BIG fuck-off one-off custom built to my own design by Destiny Cycles with a decent v-twin engine & all made of aluminium so it's not to heavy for me to ride, for posing on! ____________________ Sod falling in love, I wanna fall in chocolate.  |
