either sport or trail. VStrom or a Ducati Monster!!! Something about the naked rockets... and that Italian sound...
Money is no issue right?

Thumbs up Sports Touring Bikes

Either a Honda ST1300 or a BMW RT1200. Could do some serious long distance riding and have a lot of excitement doing it !

Probably an SV650 or FZ6 for fun or a bigger displacement cruiser for long distance riding.

Sorry, haven't been paying attention to this thread alot.

I have the XB12Ss Long. It's a couple inches longer, allowing a little more seat room. I am 6'2'' or 6'3'' and although I am big for the bike, it's not really uncomfortable. Sure, my knees don't quite fit into the tank mod, but it's not a big deal. Really, once you're riding the bike, you forget how little it is.

Default I Would Love To... But It's Too Too Much

I already have two new bikes my C90T and the GSX R1000. Both this year models. But now, after i have looked at the M50 up close, hummm! it is a pretty bike and I would like to have it. Either the M50 or M109.
...But reality is that it would be too crazy to do that when i have two bikes and do not total 20 miles between the two. Perhaps, one used or left over inventory later on.

Just saw that bike at a show this weekend and was thinking the same thing. Not ready for a Gold Wing yet.

Had plans of adding the 109R until I saw it. Now I don't really like it.


I would add the
Yamaha FJR1300 or
Honda ST1300

Well added the V-Strom 650. So now I'd have to say a chopper. I REALLY REALLY REALLY like the one that Don's friends at LoneStar Customs did for the show that he featured on here last summer and I would also like to thank them for letting me sit on it too.


Note the "Eat crap grin" on my face!!!!
