What Used Bike Would You Want?

slow connection, posted twice. delete or ignore...

 

oh its too late for that.

1st reply biotches, suck it.

lol.

 

Seriosly tho. I would like a used gs500 for my wife. We are saving for one that isnt flashy...that way she doesnt have to worry so much about keeping it pretty while learning to ride. And will cost us less. Also I will have something to ride this winter instead of putting :mellisa: through the rainy season.

Sorry your internet is slow... but the thread shall live on. arty2:

 

I would like a used dual sport to crash around in the hills up here.

 

Jay Lenow's C18 Alison tubo bike..:crazy::thumbsup:

 

my old CBR 900 back

 

Ninja 250
SV 650
F4i
ZX-14
Aprilia Mille RSV
Ducati 900ss (just because I think it looks cool)
Honda Shadow Spirit 750

 

VF500 with low, low miles (like 10 or 12)!

 

How is vfr husband going to afford buying us all these bikes?

by the way guys I think his offer is one bike per post.

 

An RC30 and an RC45

 

For some strange reason, I really like the old Moto Guzzi Monza V50's. I'm sure they leak and are unreliable, and are impossible to get parts for.

Hmm. Kinda sounds like me.

 

Suzuki TL1000S. I just loved the look and sound of that bike!

 

76 or77 Rd 400...

 

a 03' or better gsx-r 750

 

2007 MV Agusta F4. I could never ride the bike to anywhere near its abilities, but I like it!

 

I'm searching for a nice used Motard, but if I hade enough money, I'd like an RC-51.

 

Dual purpose...KTM has some interesting models.

 

Nobody still wants gopher a ride's beater in Kalamazoo?

A little sick but still a great fantasy bike IMO..

 

My deep dark secret

I have a thing for the ZX11D. Please don't tell anyone. The purple one to.:loco:

 

MY choice would be at or below 100 hp. limited by choice to what i might be skilled enough to put to practical use, and don't think i could ever use more power than that in a sensible, responsible, or practical manner..........riding in or near a town.

I believe that 100 hp is a reasonable limit for any 'cycle less than 600 pounds, and understand that most will think i'm UNreasonable, and maybe i am. I'm not going to write my congressfool to discuss the proposal, however

I've ridden my fastest bike to about 140, don't need more. What am i liking more about doing 172 on my buddy's RC 51 ??

Others are younger, braver, more daring, and more able to pay tickets, naturally, and the quest for unlimited horsepower seems bread into our jeans and with our inalianable bragging rights after all, as US Citizens !

Mine IS bigger!!! It's right here, this tall bulge on the graph !

Based upon a 100 hp limit, i believe the '94-'97 VFRs represent a clear evolution of design to a certain level and perform their intended missions equally well as heavyweight sport or lightweight touring bike, with proper upgrades .IMO.

Most of my riding is in town,so.....

I'd be able to DOUBLE the posted speed limit anywhere, anytime on my '88 VTR 250 in a city or a town, and @ 28 hp @45 mpg, so i wouldn't want to ride a heavy, high hp superbike that will never get out of 3rd gear? My ZX -14 would stay at home !! It's plenty enjoyable to ride a small bike hard, shifting with the revlimiter, but you'd best tip-toe that GSXR. My fantasy RC 30 would mostly stay in the garage while i rode my Hawk at mid-50's hp and 385# weight, an ideal bike in any city traffic.


Of course, of course if you're away OUT on the interstate, that's different......... or on a dragstrip........... or crossin' 'em west Texas plaaains --that you think mighIt neva -damn stop-- NEED them ponays..........like to 'scape from dat darn big 'ole torn-NA-doe a' rummblin' on up behine'......!!

As Americans it's our RIGHT to have whatever might be excessive be it wretched or not as long as we have the money.



NOW back to the TV............
