You have great taste in bikes, Hal. I think we're both on the same wavelength with Ducati superibkes and KTM supermotos. I just need a big a$$ touring bike and I'll be all set.

What would you get?

Was at the shop the other day and was really checking out the new 1198 Duke and the 1000RR BMW.... Both are beautiful bikes.

Due to cost considerations I'm kinda thinking Honda ST1300 with bags, heated grips, all that jazz. I'm too young for a Goldwing.

That's the one I REALLY want but don't have 20k to burn. I seriously thought about selling the 996S, the KTM, and my F150 but I still wouldn't have enough for the new Multi 1200S. ry

Would LOVE a Duc... However, I'm selling my Suzuki because I'm going to get myself killed or arrested on it.

Sounds like you are ready for trackdays or schools. Any decent tracks close to you?

Nice ride!

Anyone who rides on two wheels with a motor qualifies for this thread imho.

I actually went 4 weeks without driving a car in June. Seemed strange the first time I got back in one for my trip to bama for the fourth. Oh well, I didn'rt need the tires on the car flat spotting Be safe out there, the cagers are still doing their best to take us out.

No kidding! A couple weeks back I almost had a cop run me over. When I flashed my brights at him (so he would see me) he gave me a dirty look? Bastage.

Never really had interest in two wheels dont know why because all the post i've seen so far are some very wonderful looking machines. I have this banshee here i have had for 6 years now. I have just about done everything to it that i want done to it. I have bored out the cylinders,ported and polish as well. A different air intake with bored out carbs. I also have in frame drag pipes. I have the domes for running alcohol but choose not to because this is the second motor that i've been thru so i've chosen to just run aviation fuel which is a much nicer burning fuel then pump. All in all i have a blast everytime i go out and ride a few dunes i shouldn't have but hey thats the fun part of battle wounds and the stories.

After a string of three Harleys (which look about like any other Harley) I got these two in the garage now...



That plus a 2003 1500 Intruder.
