If money was no object??!!

Just curious about peoples desires (of the 2 wheeled variety) ??

I will say now, we obviously all love our and i've got to say even when i look at new bike don't think i'll sell my little Yazmeen, gonna keep her for little one to inherit (it's how all classics start) but that said we all i'm sure aspire to our 'Dream' bike!

I've long had a somewhat unhealthy desire towards Ducati's and after recently seeing up close a Desmosedici (and having dealership 5 minutes from house) it has nothing but increase, i know i would probably do myself a mischief on it as well so have slightly more realistic ambitions towards one day buying an 1198 not aided by the fact chap in Coventry rides past my shop most days in the summer (thoughts rugby tackle, theft spring to mind however i just normally stand staring as soon as i here her coming ), altho will probably have long gone buy time i find buyer for all non vital organs needed to raise cash for bike, insuranc and running cost's, just thought i'd throw the question out of what every one else would love in their garage???????

Well, me just getting into the 2 wheels again I'm currently ok with the cat but i have started looking at the aces. especially since merv put that post on about him and the R1.

While stuck in Dallas I did visit a Yam dealer and the new R1s & 6s where very nice. But the pillion looked extremely uncomforable.

So I'd have a black and gold one. Snap eh Fi!

For me it would have to be the MV Agusta. Perhaps one of the limited editions like the Senna for instance.

The Chairman of the company I work for has an MV Agusta in his office, less than 10 ft away from me. I keep telling him it's a sin to just let it sit there, being admired. I've offered to take it over to the TT for him but he won't entertain it.

I've also offered to drape myself over it, wearing only my Mankini or Speedos, at a local bike show. Can't understand his reluctance.

Toni - Mankini or speedo's.

That's a mental picture I could be doing without.

If he is giving out free shots though I've got a mankini in a drawer somewhere.

Cheers

I know you don't want to know this but I have 2 mankini's.

1 available for rent if anyone is interested. Never been worn (the other one has, on our works christmas do, but thats another story )

PMSL @ Tony ....... i've had a sh!t day (snotty briefs) and that really made me smile

At this point i would like to point out that that was 'briefs' in the legal sense not as in the underwear variety


I'm afraid i'm boring - i love my bike and i know my limitations tho i do have a hankering for an R6 still but it'd be wasted on me and my other slight hankerings of a Thruxton (or Gladius) are not quite as exciting so i'm afraid i'd have to go to the dark side and spend my money on my one REAL long time fantasy of a little Triumph Spitfire - preferably red and getting the Barnet done up!

Glad I made someone smile.

Well i have to be honest all i would like is a 2005 last of the old shape R6 in the grey /silver

I like this , it's a bit like what would you spend your money on if you won the lottery , but I'm going off at a tangent ! In addition to my lovely Cat , I also have a VMAX which was always the bike I really wanted more than anything else , but I must admitt to fancying a Harley VROD

My ex had a RSV R Factory Mille, which I loved riding, but he had soooo much trouble with the twin, it really wasnt worth the hassle and eventually had to swap it for an R1.

We've been looking at new bikes lately, R6, GXR (Limited edition in white is loverly) and CBR and cant decide so will probably stick to the 'cats for a bit and maybe upgrade the puddle jumper

Oh I'd also love the NEW VMAX which at a price tag of £20000 new , money would have to be no object !

plenty left over for the fringed accessories then John [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

Probably another Triumph Sprint... which, oddly enough, I'm looking at purchasing anyway!

Which sprint ? Triumph do about 3 or 4 sprint models.

without wanting to jinx it, there's a gorgeous red 955i ST (1999 model) in the "trade sales" bit of a local triumph dealer. except mine had factory triumph panniers, it's identical to my first "big" bike.

it's slightly high mileage (40k), slightly tatty in the odd place but nothing unexpected for an eleven-year-old tourer, but with kappa panniers and a givi monolock plate, and a sticker price of £2k. he says he'll give me a grand for the thundercat, so... hmm... my only concern is that it's sold as seen but with a full MOT and the tyres look a bit marginal. he says that if they pass an MOT they stay on, if they fail they'll be changed, so i think that could be the decider.

writing this has actually made my decision for me - sod the money, you only live once and i DO miss my old triumph. off to see him for a proper chat tomorrow morning!

I have a soft spot for ducati's and money was no object I think I would have the whole range

I like the B King too Possibly think that might be my next purchase when they decide to give me another bonus at work

Gotta agree with some others V-Max for me, just love the potential for a Mad Max look

Well that'll be you and John in the fringed jackets together then!

There was a V-Max for sale at my local bike meet tonight, anyone want me to get some more details?

Chris

Well that'll be you and John in the fringed jackets together then!

I'm sure you have a fettish for fringed jackets

Would have to be a Britten for me, bike porn and the reason I got into design.

Like Fi, have a hankering for a Mille or two... having been on a few racing teams wot ran them, they're feckin brilliant bikes, I love v-twins I do I'd also buy back my 916SPS too, even tho my erse wouldn't fit on it now Oh and a Bimota SB6...

Need to go and cool off now
