The MOTORCYCLE thread!

[speed5hornet]

okay all of us with motorcycles, cruisers, sports, or rockets you name it, lets see em', talk about em', etc!

ill start

I currently ride a 2001 Yahama R6, waiting a carb kit to be installed, that and to be sold...possibly. I have always like the Buell Firebolt XB9R, its so unique looking. But i have to test drive one and see, who knows maybe it will be the perfect bike for me, maybe ill hate it and keep my R6 who knows.


So come one people lets make this friggin' bike thread!

 

[~JoJo~]

Here's a list of bikes I owned.

98 Honda F3
01 Ducati Monster
05 Yamaha R6 (my favorite bike)
00 Honda F4

I am really more of a cruiser guy but some how I kept getting deals with sport bikes. Eventually I'll move into my customer cruiser =p

Here's my list:

(edit-forgot my first bike) 92 Honda Nighthawk 250
92 Honda F2 (sold)
96 Honda Magna VF750 (sold)
06 Honda CBR 600RR

I also started off with the MSF Ridercourse, and eventually became an MSF instructor for 3 years.

 

[speed5hornet]

man, you have the bike i almost bought, the 06 600RR mmm hot

 

[ForceFed]

I have an '06 Honda 600RR...Quite modded.I have basically put about every major mod on it short of getting into internals.Tons of CF..Lots of one off CF pieces.

I have previously owned

'88 Kaw Ninja 500R
'96 Kaw ZX6R
'03 Suzuki GSXR600
and a ton more that I had not long enough to care to list.

I just recently picked up an '01 Honda 929 as a stunter...but after getting it..It might be too nice to stunt out....What do you think?
It is a salvage that I picked up from my boss...He laid it don lightly and cracked the block..that was nearly enough to salvage it by itself..so I got a killer deal on it.
Needs a bit of work..but nothing too major.

Here is my previous GSXR I just sold last Summer.....Here is my rebuild thread on it.
It was DESTROYED when I got it.
I did all of the work including the paint.

The only mods I have is the FE and a dark smoke double bubble windscreen.

Its funny you say that....I am getting ready to Axe all of the tribal Plastics in Favor of a New White Scheme.
I wont be painting the factories though....I'll be buying used plastic to paint.
I also need to source a nice CF front fender.
I like white...see a pattern here.

White and CarbonFiber=PureSex
