Road:
Ducati Monster M796 ABS (daily ride)
MV Agusta F3 (sportbike for weekends)
Triumph Sprint GT 1050 (tourer)
Aprilia RSV4 Factory APRC (sportbike for trackdays)
TM SMM 450 Black dream (supermoto for stunting)
Bimota DB8 SP (exotic for showing off)
Aprilia AF1 Sport Pro (my first bike)
Suzuki GS500E (my current bike)
Cagiva Mito (lightweight, yellow)
Mavizen TTX02 (fast electric)
Zero S (electric commuter)

Offroad:
KTM 250 SX (2-stroke)
Husqvarna TE 449 (4-stroke)
Quantya Evo1 Track (electric)
Zero X (alternative electric)

Track:
Triumph Daytona 675
Aprilia SXV 550 (modified to gp-bike)
KTM Moto3

There's something to start with. Some custom build bikes would be nice, too.

I wonder why I'm starting to feel, that my next bike will be European.

Just for giggles, I'd get a an sv frame and stuff the kawi's parallel 650 in it.
Then I'd stuff the Kawi's frame with the GS motor and sell it.

Then I'd stuff the GS frame with a GSXR1000 motor and then have another GS with a ktm duke motor. Oh just to piss people off, I'd stuff the GS motor into the GSXR1000 frame.

Then I'd get a Triumph Bonneville 08 and later, a BMW R1200C probably all stock.

Cant stand cruisers with V twin motors.
Cool.
Buddha.

In addition to what I already have:
2 more GS, a '90-99, and an F model
Triumph Bonneville (new one)
Triumph Rocket III
'87-92 H-D FXR, FXLR, or Low Rider Custom
'08 Kawasaki Ninja 250 trackbike
DRZ125L
TTR125L
TTR230

Edit; Oh and an Aprilia Tuono
And an DRZ400SM

And, maybe a SM'ed DR650

Electrojake · October 24, 2011, 09:21:25 AM

Gee, that's easy. . .

1.) Yamaha Super Tenere to replace my tired DL1000k6.
2.) Kawasaki KLX250SF with a wind screen for running errands & such.
3.) BMW R1200 GS so I could hang with the Big Dogs and talk as if I actually had the time & vitality to use it for it was intended for.

applecrew · October 24, 2011, 10:15:42 AM

If I could, and I had the means to keep them in all running in top condition, I would like the following:

BMW F800 ST
BMW R 1200R
Kawasaki ZRX 1100 (always wanted one of these!)
Aprilia Tuono (Everyone should try an Italian bike)
Triumph Speed Triple (For the hooligan in me)
'75 Yamaha RD 350 (Everyone needs a little 2-stroke terror!)
Suzuki GSXR 750 (not my type, really, but feel I deserve to give it a go)

If I HAD to have a cruiser, I think I would settle for either of the following:

Exile Cycles Fat Bloke
HD Fat Bob

Harley- Super Glide Custom
Kawasaki- ninja 1000
Suzuki- Sv650sf with abs
Suzuki- GSXR-600

I actually saw a guy doing a track day on one of these. He was doing ok as well

Shaddow · October 25, 2011, 01:53:33 AM

Wow this is actually quite hard.

I'd have to do something like choose a model of bike and try and get every year it was ever made in every trim.

After that.
DRz400
R1
Street Triple R
Vmax
One of those Victories (not sure exact model)
Goldwing
Busa
And many harleys that I would melt into a puddle.

Is that necessary? They usually leave a big black one of their own under them.

Yes. Not because I dislike the bikes. They are what they are. Its the riders that think they are gold and can't appreciate them as a bike compared to other bikes. Those are the ones I would buy and melt in front of their former owners.

I'm petty I know.

Oh joy!

I love these off topic jaunts!

The middle aged, disposable income, barely capable, Harley men out on their Sunday afternoon ride to the hills and back. Oh how they clog my day.
