I really like the street fighter bikes ^_^ but I'm a R6 fan

Okita · « **Reply #4 on:** Thu, 16 August 2012, 13:28:52 »

I owned an R6 before crashing it within my first week. Almost tore my balls off going over the top spread eagle.

Contemplating either an Aprilia SXV 550 or a Triumph Street Triple as my next bike.

boost · « **Reply #5 on:** Thu, 16 August 2012, 14:09:35 »

Damn. Hearing all the negative parts if owning a bike is like WTF, but I still want one.

Thinking about buying a noon bike like a 650r just to get the deal of it

MOAR BARS

never ride in shorts on a gravely mountain at night after it rains. Pics upon request.

I think I'll do the motorcycle licence next year.

I don't plan on buying one just afterwards, but someday in the future. And doing the licence in a few years will be a lot more of a hassle.

I've always wanted a Ducati. The 1198's are super cool IMO. I also would love to have an Indian bike at some point in my life, but I'd ride it more than keep the antique.

Ducatis are the Topres of the bike world. The Suzuki SV650 us the CM Quickfire Rapid lololol.

I prefer a more reliable option, Honda Wave which is a upgrade from the Honda Cub. Just like Cherry keyboards. Not the most technological advance nor flashiest in design but it runs forever.

60,000km and only need a change of engine oil and air filter every now and then.

\
125cc, 4-speed
40-60 km per liter
110km/h top speed

I used to have a Yamaha FZR400RR Japanese specs while I was living in Bangkok and let me tell ya, it gave me a whole new respect for smaller displacement engines. lol

Those are pretty different bikes, but I'll vouch for the Triumph triples. I've had a Daytona 675 for a few years now and it's a blast.

Thought I'd bump this up, since its now spring and I got my bike out.

tjcaustin · « **Reply #16 on:** Sat, 06 April 2013, 19:27:37 »

Mmm so many feels for the sound/feel of my triple pistoned bike.

Necro thread needs moar motorcycles and less scooters.

I didn't say I didn't like mopeds, your's included. This is the motor~~cycle~~zombie thread though, so you can imagine my confusion at the any moped/scooter being in here.

SmallFry · « **Reply #19 on:** Sat, 06 April 2013, 19:51:05 »

Nope! I can't understand at all!

I've been looking at getting another moped to modify since this one is technically my dad's. The ones I can find near me though are all titleless... which I am not touching, too much liability if it is stolen or something.

Rode a Ducati 750 Monster for about three years....man I miss riding so much.

noisyturtle · « **Reply #21 on:** Sat, 06 April 2013, 20:02:36 »

Bimota blows Ducati out of the freakin' water. Makes them look like tricycles.

Tarzan · « **Reply #22 on:** Sat, 06 April 2013, 20:06:14 »

I miss riding. Have a 1983 Honda VF750F in storage, a project bike that I haven't touched in years. Sold my BMW K1200R last year, loved the bike but rarely rode it after my son arrived. Made me realize that riding is a pretty solitary sport, and if I had free time I'd rather spend it with family than haring off into the sunset.

But I still miss riding.

When did the Ducati grow another wheel?

We shall have a GH Moped Army Gang! Huzzah! The borders of countries shall fall at the feet of our scooters!

This is my ride - Suzuki Bandit - the last year of the old body style. The pic is from a couple years ago after a long road trip so it has all the bags on it still. The top case and soft bags come off. It is the perfect bike for me - a sport standard. A fast sport bike (1200cc) but you sit upright and not completely tucked/crouched. My friends and I take at least one multi state trip each year and more than a couple hours on the highway on a smaller sport bike gets uncomfortable. (I am 6' 3")

If spring ever truly comes maybe she'll see some daylight soon.
