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. Very Happy

Which bikes would you buy (money no object)

BMW R1150GS

Yamaha RD500YPVS (twin crank, V-four, 2-stroke silliness Twisted Evil )

Honda S6 race bike (paralell six, air cooled, 250cc 4-stroke with desmo valves) and a team of Japanese mechanics to keep it running.

I think it would have to be

1: A black Y2K
2: A supercharged nitrous powerd busa
3: A honda rcv211 converted to road use

I think they would keep me amused for a while

hmmm Thinking ...

Ducati 998 Final Edition

CBR600RR

Yamaha XT660X (or some other really cool Supermoto)

I'd probably be using the Honda most of the time... Very Happy

I'd probably go:

1) Turbo charged Busa running NOS
2) That Rolls Royce Jet Turbine bike
3) Honda Pan European for running back and forth to work.

Only three bikes?

Sad

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.

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 Smile.

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 Confused.

Sorry, dunno if I could manage with just three Razz.

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.

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!
