I should quit while I'm ahead; or, *Bikes That Get You Off*

[Shermanator86]

Arguably one of the most important DIY bikes ever built. And it's by one of our cousins from over in New Zealand, the DIY capital of the world.

That thing is awesome, off to google I go to find more about it !

 

[smvirili]

Lucifer's Hammar
Buell RR1000/HD XR1000 colab

I'll never stop loving this thing though,
I think it's Dick Sutton's Cheney Triumph 650

 

[Staffy]

Another one, and why not? I'm enjoying this!

The Bimoto Tesi 1D with her clothes on...

And naked...

 

[Ringo]

Love the retro colors on Guy Martin's (late)Fireblade

 

[hurricane7]

Martini livery (at least on the old 908s & 917s) has always done it for me, so...

For me it would be pure unobtainium... but it speaks to me on every level. A true man among men racer with the most glorious sound. It's the Mona Lisa of motorcycles, the Moto Guzzi v8.

This bike moves me in every way. Bimota 500 Vdue. Amazing curves, Italian style, 2 Stroke, and laced with carbon.

A couple more that I would punch a nun to own...

First up is the 1936 HD Flathead Model R:

and, the Buell XB12s Carbon:

Than theres the Mugen Honda CB1100 Special concept, and the Honda CB1000r Concept:

I swear to got that thing is pretty much in Thunderbird... But with no strings attached. ;D
What an animal!!
Love to see what it looks like without the cowl, though.
Do they warm the engines up like that cause it has dry sump or something? Thought that shit was bad.

Manx Norton. Every cafe racer wants to be this bike, but never will. Perfect.

I'm a bit simple. A Manx Norton does it for me every time.

 

[biker_reject]

These are the types of bikes that really grab my attention... Yes that is Pamela Anderson in an early modeling pic!

 

[biker_reject]

Oh, my most recent fave (cause I built it)...

 

[Uncle Billy]

These grabbed my attention. A few of them I've actually ridden, a couple I'm sure no one has ridden.

 

[my-79-750-k]

I can think of a few bikes that I wouldn't mind owning... Maybe one day when I'm rich and famous
Aprilia RSV-1000R

Honda RC30

Honda NR400

Nah. That old bike needs to have the fenders removed and get rid of the stuff in the middle and then it needs matt black paint and some stripes.

Just kidding.

The Manx is a classic, but I think that a '62 G50 looks even nicer.

I find myself liking most of what comes out of the Radical Ducati shop:

One more Duc; not a Radical, but it floats my boat...

 

[biker_reject]

Amen on the Ducs!

 

[boingk]

Big ups for the BMW K1... epic bike for its time and still sought after now. High speed riding? Beyond par.

Now a few bikes that get me going!

My old GS850G... wish I'd kept it really

BMW HP2 Sport, possibly the best performing aircooled twin on the planet:

Ducati GT-1000 Sport:

Whatever this is... mainly like the stance and minimalism of it:

Some great bikes in this list, keep it going guys!

Cheers - boingk

The first bike i ever fell for, was there anything cooler in 1994
also, this yahama virago one of my favorites, proving its not what you bike, its what you build!
