Thread necromancy! But I have two machines. 1988 GSXR1100 1989 Dnepr MT11 Sidecar outfit
Nice bikes, Bish! (I always wanted a sidecar for my boxer to travel with me)
This is gonna sound nuts, but I want a sidecar on my CT 90…bad!
75 Harley superglide (fxe) here…needs forks rebuilt and I need the time to do it…
This makes me miss my Norton Commando…*sniff* *sniff*. Oh well, thank god for the Sportster.

Plain ole’ 2007 Suzuki SV650. Naked standard bike, 650cc V-Twin powered.
Got an old 78 Suzuki GS400X out in the garage, awaiting a few new parts. Also attending a Motorcycle Safety Foundation beginning course right now! Better late (32) than never!
09 Harley Electra Glide…with the fairing/windshield and the cruise control, I can snuff while I ride!!!
I haven’t taken any pictures yet, but I just purchased my first scooter. It’s Hammerhead’s La Vita 150 EFI. It’s not a vespa, but a close enough clone of its 1960s VBB series. Needless to say, vintage scooter enthusiasts hate it with a passion (will they attack me if I encounter them on the road?). The following is not my own scooter, but it’s exactly like it minus a few reflective stickers (and a decal displaying the flag of colonial Hong Kong).
Why would other scooter riders hate your ride,itsuke? Who cares if it’s not Italian, as long as you’re riding, is the way I see it. Kind of looks like a Stella, too. @Carol That Stella company carries a scooter sidecar that would look nice on a Honda your size,haha! I’ve thought about it too.
This is my darling! Perfect for the german “Autobahn” without speedlimit!

@Longcut, that looks like a bolt of lightning… Very Cool…
@Bart Vintage scooter enthusiasts see the La Vita 150 as a Vespa imitation (which it is). They think a true scooterist must be happy with shifting gears and doing constant maintance on a 2-stroke. Sadly I don’t want to deal with either one of them, especially when I ride on the mean streets of New York City.
Update: I passed my operator skills test last night! Soon as I take my written test I’ll be endorsed, w00t!
Im just getting my license sadly Ill have to reduce my bike to 34 horsepower because new bike riders under 25 have to do that, I guess to keep my youthful recklessness at bay. Ill probably get a used Honda CBF 600. looking so forward to this. @longcut Im a bit jealous, but Id be even more so if it was the b-king and not the Hayabusa
Busa’s are nice. Envy.
I own a 2 leg power Felt Virtue Two plus a 2 leg power GT Zum Hybrid. The Felt is not very fast but it can go where NO horse power driven bike can reach.
I miss my old 7/11. Take a 1985 GSX-R 750, add a 1992 GSXR1100 motor, stick on 1996 honda fireblad forks, front wheel and brakes. You get one of the most entertaining ways to kill yourself yet invented. The guy who stole it and crashed it (within 5 minutes of nicking it) found out what a handful it was. I can at least sleep at night knowing that the guy will walk with a bad limp for the rest of his life.
well I went out to day to check on used bikes and this is what I like best so far: a Yamaha bulldog so you dont have to google: Id really love to buy it, used obviously, but its still quite expensive… Well any thoughts about the bike from the snuffbiker society?
