Go on then, money no object, what would you have????

I have a thing for quirky V Twins (I own a Buell FFS!) So I would probably go for one of these (if they ever go into production)

Its a French made Wakan.

Or if not that, one of these

The Confederate Hellcat. 137bhp, with 145 ft. lbs of Torque. Made in New Orleans.

Well you wouldnt have trouble finding either in a row of sportsbikes at a bike meet would you??

Great pic Fablon. My son in law has got a mint RVF400. Very trick, but he never rides the bugger. He only did 46 miles last year (to MOT station and back)
What a waste

Bandit 1200S does pretty much everything i want it to, done alot of miles on mine and tweaked her a lil so she pushed a bit more at the back hoop, so would probably go for another one, Only this time it will pay a visit to Holeshot racing for the 175bhp treatment so i have somthing just a lil mental (just like me really):pDT_Xtremez_28:

Theres a bit of a theme here, apart from the Bandit all the dream bikes are V's either V Twins or V 4'S.

So its no suprise to say current bike 1998 VFR 750, dream bike 1998 VFR 750 with suspension sorted by Maxton and a high level end can.

I've had the bike for 5 years and in 30 years of riding it is the best balance between toy and workhorse. Great for touring, track day at Croft and the daily grind in traffic back and forward to work.

Luv it.

Now that I like. I'm going through a cafe racer phase at the minute so it's either that Wakan, one of these,

or

or a heavily modified triumph thruxton like this.

I have just got my dream bike...It's fantastic! Good downhill, but outstanding on the open trail.

Git!

Always loved the Specialized though, had an old Rock Hopper, with 19" cut down bars and STX RC/LX throughout. Shame I wrapped it round a tree!

Now I got one I built meself (Wheels came as hubs, spokes and rims) Bought a cheeeeep Alu frame, some forks, etc etc and spent a week building wheels and a weekend building the rest ::D:

Good amount of satisfaction from it. seen as it's been going almost 8 years now!!!

Suzuki GSX1100S Katana, MMMMMMMMMmmmmmmm.
Love the 80's styling. Handles like the frame is made of pipe-cleaners, weedy brakes, engine too powerful for the bike. Damn scary to ride when compared to modern bikes, a real Mans bike.

Either that or a Yam V-Max, V4, unrestricted, can pull a tractor out of concrete.
Gives me the horn just thinking about it.:pDT_Xtremez_14:

All very nice toys guys, but personally I grew out of the "crotch rockets" years ago. Reactions got too slow and it was only a matter of time before something very nasty and terminal happened.
Got the dream bike now, and me and Thumper are very happy together, cruising the by-ways of beautiful Yorkshire.

Anyone want to hazard a guess?
