Motorcycles

I rode a lot before the kids were born. Had a Suzuki SV 650 and loved it. Great bike. Will ride again one day.

 

I had Panheads from 16-35. Sold my next to last one to purchase a 27’ sailboat
I don’t know of any pix I could lay my hands on but I did have a shot of me in the In The Wind section of Easy Rider. Pretty sure it was in mid to late 1970

 

2015 Yamaha FZ07 here. Rode dirt bikes when I was a teenager and didn't start riding streetbikes until about three years ago. Love my bike.

 

Why, yes...now that you mention it.

My last bike was a Honda V45. I still miss it.

 

This one's not mine, but I had one just like it in the late '70s. 1973 Norton 750 commando.

 

I ride a little.

I've got more than a few '70's Hondas but my every day rides are a '81 CB750K cafe racer and a '16 Kawasaki Z800

 

CB550 four Hondas...I loved them! My dad worked for the original Indian company.

 

Love 'em. Been riding since I was eight, and that was longer ago than I care to think about sometimes, though I suppose that's a good thing when it comes to riding. Currently have two - a 96 Ducati 900 SSCR and an 07 Ducati 999s Team USA.

 

I got this ‘19 Harley Street Glide a few days ago, trading an ‘18 Harley Road Glide (white) with 9200 miles. Bigger motor and better nav screen on the ‘19, and the Street Glide fits me better.

 

Not my bikes but identical models to a couple I owned pre mortgage.. Not currently riding but hope to make a comeback soon

 

Yep, raced bikes my whole life. Started with Road racing RGV and NSR250's and eventually ended up in Motocross.

Been to Japan a few times to the bike auctions in Tokyo, bought, sold and traded many...V-Rods, Ducati 999, 749's, GSXR 750 and my favorite being the large scooters, Honda SIlver wing 600, Suzuki Burgman 650, Yamaha T-Max 500 (current work bike).

Even got to ride a Ducati Desmodici (road legal Moto GP bike) on some open road for 20 minutes...(unreal experience).

Im #57 below.

 

You sound like a Genuine Mad Kiwi... are you?

I’m from ‘the Tron’, born in Kawerau...

I’ve ridden bikes since I was about 14... still don’t have a car license at 41...

I’d like to mod myself a cafe racer... maybe next summer... (don’t tell the wife, she thinks I’m only obsessed with guitars)

 

Been a biker since the age of ten. I've had far to many bikes to list here but large capacity sports bike have been dominant, and I've used them on the track.
However, age takes its toll and earlier this year arthritis has meant the end of big powerful bikes so I brought a 125 dirt bike so I'm still on two wheels.
We just don't give in, that's bike for you.

 

Which one...Interceptor, Magna or Sabre?
