For me it's Suzuki Bandits, there's something about them that I can't put my finger on, they look gorgeous, basically to me they're the stereotypical 'biker's bike', and I know they're basic and getting on a bit but I do love them.

Anyone else find there's particular bikes they're drawn to? Any teapot fetishes? Anyone can't resist Hayabusas? What's your achilles bike?

Hahaha walked into that one, yeah but it's not the style of bike I'm into, I'm a sportsbike nut. Don't like any other naked bikes.

I love hayabusas. At first I just thought they were fat and ugly, but now the shape and styling has grown on me.

I'm also attracted to the stupid amount of power that you can get out of them.

Who can say this is not a sexy bike?

Definately go with the old style blades, there's something very perfect about them.

Had my TRX for a while now and even though it's got lumpy jerky throttle to 4.5k, old old styling, v.v. dogy electrics and loads of scratches. I still think it's the best bike I've ever owned.
