If you get a 3rd gen, which I also would much like to have, plan to rebuild the engine every 50k miles at least!

And yes, those are mostly my parents cars except for the rx7 and gsf. But I did have to drive my dad in the porsche to pick up his road king on monday!  :)

Since I'm staying with my parents for the summer (apartment move in date is Aug. 19) we have in this garage (1 car, MAYBE 2 small ones with no room to open doors)

1982 Honda CBX
2001 Yamaha FZ1
2004 GS500E (mine)
2001 Honda ST1100
1980 Yamaha XT250
1981 Suzuki TS250
198x Honda CBX parts bike

and we squeezed in my old crashed '92 GS in there earlier too. To get everything to fit, they must all be on centerstands (dirtbikes excluded).
Title: Re: Vehicles in your garage...
Post by: Phaedrus on May 31, 2006, 09:12:52 PM
I don't have a garage, and I don't have many vehicles anymore. At one time, I had:

1997 Dodge Dakota 4x4
1991 Plymouth Acclaim
2004 Suzuki GS500F
2004 Yamaha Zuma

I sold the Dakota and got an '02 Hyundai Accent (gas prices..). The beater Acclaim got a cracked windsheild (got a ticket for it..)- $200 to fix - and exceeded the value of the car so I gave it to a buddy of mine for parts.  :laugh: I sold the Zuma to a kid from NYC, which left me with the GS (and the Hyundai).

I'd kind of like to get a small beater truck - maybe a small Gen I Dakota or a 80's-90's S-10. Something I can bang around on, tinker with on the weekends, splash around in the mud and haul crap with.  I don't really have anywhere for it, but in the future I hope to  :thumb:

Then have her sign it over to you, unless you are under 18 or something???
Title: Re: Vehicles in your garage...

no, just lazy. i'm 20, so that's not an issue. doesn't really matter. they aren't the kind of parents that would sell my car or anything.
Title: Re: Vehicles in your garage...
Post by: ajgs500 on May 31, 2006, 09:28:43 PM
Ya but still what if you wanted to use it as collateral or something.  My parents signed everything over to me once I turned 18.
Title: Re: Vehicles in your garage...
Post by: Phaedrus on May 31, 2006, 09:32:50 PM
I don't know how it works "out there", but I know a lot of people your age (especially guys) keep their car titled/registered to their parents for insurance reasons. For example, a 20 year old guy with a certain car might have to pay $2000 a year, where if it is in the parents name, the insurance is only $300 (just an example). In NY anyway, the car has to be registered to the insured. So it is economical. I don't know many 20 year olds that can afford high insurance premiums. The money is often better applied to things like college tuition and whatnot  :thumb:

If it were in my name it wouldn't matter, same rates. I'm on my parents plan though, that's that really helps. When I move out I will probably have them sign it over. My motorcycle is actually registered to myself and my dad.

...shaZam!...

Garage...there's only room for the project bikes.  At the moment a 1983 400 Maxim, CB900 and EX500.  The rest of the 22X30 flooring is fiilled with crap.

In the driveway I have 1987 Turbo II RX-7 and a 1979 Supra.  Thena bunch of crap including a trailer I'm using to gather up crap to make it disapear.  I leave enough room in the drive for another car to park.

In the yard is a ford F150 and a BMW 328I (parked under trees...because it's 4 million degrees outside and they stay cooler there).

On the sidewalk I have my TL1000S and a customer's TL1000S (doing an SSSA swap on it).

Post by: makenzie71 on May 31, 2006, 10:00:16 PM
it's being parted out...was nothing special.  It was a huge disapointment.  I had a really badass SE...bright red with a mild street-port block, limited slip rear, tien suspension, 15" koenigs (15lbs!) and composite windows and hatch.  Weighed a whopping 2800lbs wet and put down 154rwhp.  It was crazy fast for what it was...but it got shaZam! for traction in the rain and nose-dived into a red Blazer...:(

I've had 5 RX-7's in all...been disapointed every time...:(...still love them for some reason...

Considering *MY* is a relative term (thanks for the clarification, AJ!)...at my parent's house:

garage:
2006 GS500F (mine..) :thumb:
2007 BMW 530xi (dad's -actually just got it today)

driveway:
1999 Mazda Millenia (mine when it sucks out)
2003 Jag X-type (mom's)
a couple schwinns (brother's and sister's)

I don't hold title to anything but the bike...woohoo...that means I don't have to pay for registration!  I think he's going to transfer the Millenia to my name so I can have the priviledge of paying a billion dollars in insurance. :thumb:

How do you like these bikes? i like the Speed Four as a smaller alternative to the Speed Triple (doesn't look quite as cool, IMO tho)...and i've got my eyes on the NT650 as a potential next bike (i actually searched "Honda Hawk" on here yesterday and was reading all the threads :))

I don't know they have the diesel Liberty in the U.S., this was the first year for it in Canada althought it's apparently been in Europe for a couple of years. The mileage is good... I get about 700 kilometres on a tank of diesel, and than runs me about $50 (Canadian) at current prices.

Powerwise, I don't know many numbers out of my head... I bought it because I wanted something with decent towing capacity but didn't want to go to a gas-guzzling full size pickup. This has towing capacity of 5,500 lbs which is the highest for that size of SUV by quite a bit.
