Striple 'R' because my bike only needs to be a fun bike. Really prefer them looks wise with the seat cowl fitted and
the rear footpegs removed. So I may very well have to buy a second more comfy 'pillion friendly' bike as well.
Never mind, an old BMW clunker may be in order if I can find a good non ABS/Deactivated one. ____________________ Currently enjoying products from Ford, Mazda and Yamaha

I keep thinking about:
Suzuki TS50X
MZ ETZ 250
Yamaha TT600R Belgarda
Yamaha FZR 400RR 3TJ
Yamaha DT175MX
Honda CB400F Superdream
Yamaha TDM850
Yamaha TRX850
Husqvarna WR360
In no order, it would just be whatever crops up at the right time for the right price, I missed out on a local Husky 360 for about 1200 a few months ago.  ____________________ Current:1991 Honda MT50 (Soon to be a H100/MTX/MT5 hybrid), 1976 Honda Cub C70, 2005 Honda Varadero 125, 1993 Yamaha TTR250 Open Enduro , 2010 Road Legal Stomp YX140, 1994 Honda CRM 250 MK III, 1999 Cagiva Mito 125, 1992 Honda CB400 Super Four, Stomp T4 230, 1984 Honda H100s, 2009 Sym XS125K

Think about this quite a bit, but still a bit 'meh' about biking at the moment. Not sure why - speed paranoia I guess.
I could go out and get a daytona 675 or GSXR 750 but I'm not sure it would make me happy, I'm not even decent at cornering as it is on my hornet so probably need to try a n00b trackday at some point next year before I go upgrading to something far too big for my boots.
I don't want to be buying I bike I don't use properly..
Supermoto's keep coming up in my brain as I've always loved them and think it would be useful to 'hone' some skillz in on one before progressing.. including lifting that front wheel yo!
So basically, no idea. The hornet is just a do it all bike, for the amount I use a bike I need one with a bit more character (inb4 G)
Old ZX636's appeal but they are getting on abit now.
Not sure if it would be silly to spunk 5k+ on some pristine machine that outweighs my skillset and comes out 30 times a year.
Basically need to do a trackday before anything.  ____________________ 07' Honda Hornet now full powaah! My guide on performing an oil change! |

The Fazer is not going anywhere, so for me, I'd be considering something as a second bike.
Street Triple is still top of the list for that.
Tuono V2 is one I'd like to try, but don't know that I would keep one for long.
I dunno. More and more, I ask myself this question:
What do you enjoy more; the idea of a different bike, or the idea of exploring new places on the bike you have? And more and more, I get to thinking the answer is the latter of the two. 5 grand or so would see an awful lot of miles pass under the wheels.
I guess the Fazer is already good enough for everything I want in a bike. ____________________ Chickenystripgeezer's Biking Life (Latest update 19/10/18) Belgium, France, Italy, Austria tour 2016 Picos de Europa, Pyrenees and French Alps tour 2017 Scotland Trip 1, now with BONUS FEATURE edit, 5/10/19, on page 2 Scotland Trip 2 Luxembourg, Black Forest, Switzerland, Vosges Trip 2017

I'm really enjoying the Intruder (which has had few things done) so next bike will probably be something in a similar vein (old- cruiser/bobber-y), probably bit more heavily customised.
I may even look at doing more on this one but it's only a 750, would probably want something bigger.
That or a daily beater, but tbh with a little one coming soon all weather everyday biking is losing it's appeal.  |

Not sure
I do quite like me Zed and no immediate plans to change it but I do quite like the ducati diavel and also the ducati monster 1200. Street triple would be nice too. |

The Daytona trackbike isn't going anywhere. I may supplement it with a sub £1k bargain over the winter that can live outside, unloved for when I want to scratch the itch and ride on the road. ____________________ Triumph Daytona 675 track bike + girlfriend's Honda Hornet 600

Beats me, everything I've had, I've bought on a whim because it was available fairly locally.
I've been perusing Gumtree quite a bit, so... let's see.... "Honda cr80 rapid bike it has powerbands so very quick starts and stops as it should loads of fun price £550 no test pilots only buy if you under stand the power of this bike collection only "
Sounds oarsum!
Really, I have no idea. Why close your mind to possibilities? ____________________ Biking is 1/20th as dangerous as horse riding.
