Motorcycle guys here?
Gotta have some enthusiasts of the two wheeled sport on here. Had a 2005 Aprilia RSVR till 2 summers ago. Sold it to move on to a nice cruiser. Probably a BMW is in my near future. Wife is pushing for me to get one soon.

First bike was a 96 Kawasaki Eliminator, loved but had to sell it a few years ago to move out west. When I was ready to replace it I found a 07 Suzuki M109 L.E. and haven't looked back.
-
Three bikes by 16. Have 9 now. My favorites are definitely my Buell xb12s and this new parts 49' Indian I got when I was 17.
-
My first one was a hand-me-down. Still loved that beauty though. 1982 Yamaha seca 400. Every once I'm a while I go back to it for a fun ride.

2 RepliesMy first motorcycle I bought new was a Ducati Monster, but injuries, not from riding, forced me to sell it. Now I ride a Victory Vegas and my wife rides a Suzuki Boulevard. I am eyeing the new Ducati Scrambler.
-
2014 Ducati Monster 696 It's a smooth ride with enough power for my riding style. It by no means pulls like a sport bike but it does handle really well. I've tried to get the wife to ride on it and I always get that look "hell no".

2004 yamaha r1 ...ridding is a way of life for me & most of us...be safe out there guardian! ...
-
2009 Yamaha T-Max, 500cc Super-Scooter. One of the best commuting bikes I have ever had. Handling like a sport bike, smooth as silk with the CVT transmission. Also has enough storage under the seat for my lunch and helmet!

2010 Fatboy Lo flat black, all stock except for Vance & Hines big radius pipes. A word of advice for any guys thinking about getting a HD Sportster...think twice. My first HD was a Sportster. Shortly after having it I regretted not getting a "real" HD. It was way too small, top heavy, has a much less resale value as compared to a full-sized HD, and I even got crap from girls about it being a girl bike. ha ha Long ago, before my first HD, I was told to get a Sportster for my first HD to learn to ride a "big bike", and that they are easier to ride. After riding a real hog I couldn't disagree more. The full-sized bikes are so much easier to ride, despite that they have a much higher total overall weight. Just a couple things to consider for those new to HD's.

2003 1200 Sportster w/ a stage 1..... Bikes pretty damn quick. Would love to upgrade to a Roadglide.... Maybe when kids are older.
-
2003 Moto Guzzi V11 Cafe Sport. I've done several 2,000+ mile trips on it in the last 10 years and couldn't be happier with it.
-
I have a Yamaha XJR1300. She had some modifications when I got her, but I have restored it back to the original beauty she was meant to be :-)
-
I had a measly 05 GSXR600 but sold it when I got married after deciding it was a good idea to do 180mph down the toll way at 3AM (we all know that means she made me). So I bought a project car instead. Really starting to get that itch again though. I've been thinking about picking up a used victory 8ball or maybe the Honda Furry, looks cool but don't know how comfy they are. If I get another it will have to be a cruiserish bike due to my bad back now.
-
five bikes here...2014 Street Glide , 2013 CVO Breakout, Ducati Diavel Strada, Ducati Multistrada Pikes Peak, and the newest addition, Vespa GTS Supersport
-
2012 street glide. Flat Black. Almost stock, de- cat header, Power Commander, SE mufflers and performance machine air cleaner. Great ride. Cruise control on a bike is the best thing since nintendo.
-
Add roadwarrior--666 83 harley fxr shovel and an 01 roadstar as well as a 31 worlock
-
Had a few curre tly sitting on a 2000 Kawasaki ZX12R. Love it. Still scares the crap out of me sometimes....

2 RepliesI'd kill myself with a motorcycle. I'm not being melodramatic, either. I used to own a 2000 Trans Am WS-6 that I turned into a road race car. Stripped, caged, modded engine, suspension, brakes, etc. Built it in my own 2-car garage (usually with a Honda Pilot sitting so close I had to worry about weld spatter!) and eventually won the 2008-9 Louisiana GT2 championship with it. Sold that, and bought a 2-cycle race kart (KT-100). Only put out around 18hp, but would easily top 80mph on longer straights. And, co-drove an ICC shifter kart (125cc motor, 6-speed sequential gearbox, 44hp). Won or podiumed every race I finished over a 2-year period (got knocked off track quite a bit by newer drivers). Got in a big wreck, totaled my kart (broken frame, broken seat, busted clutch, bent axle, etc.). Repaired it and sold it. If I got a crotch rocket, I know I'd be going mach 3 with my hair on fire (to quote Top Gun).

2009 HD Nightster myself and will never get rid of it. Its the most fun bike I ever owned. Looking to get a Road King or Gold Wing in the near future for long distance. Took a riding course through a HD dealership and learned a lot!!! Highly recommend it and they provide the bike for the course. You might find me on the Natchez Trace or US 129 Dragon.

On my fourth bike now that being 01 Ducati St2 been itching for warmer weather and healing up from a recent injury, amputated part of my right index.

-
Honda shadow spirit myself, bout to pay it off and start shopping for my next bike!
-
Always wanted a Triumph. My last bike ( had 4 over the years ) was a SV 650 naked. Loved that thing. Sold it b/c I got paranoid. Never laid one down and thought "you know, that's lucky enough." I miss riding. Thanks alot you jerks. :) LOL

My wife LOVES to ride. She tried to talk me out of selling my bike when I did it. she was kind of pissed at me for a few days. she wants her own motorcycle but that woman can barely drive a car let alone ride around on two wheels.
