Two Wheeled Thread

It's almost 4 years since I sold my last bike, and I've finally releaved the itch :woohoo:



03 model ZX-6rr with only 2300 miles on the clock, I just knew I had to have it within seconds of seeing it. Although it's a step down from my ZX-9r, it's more than capable of putting a big grin on my boat :D

So, come on guys & girlz show us yours :moon:

Cheers guys :joint:
If that itch persists, I'd suggest frequent indulgance of at least 115bhp @ rear wheel. If that doesn't cure thee then maybe you need to pay these guys a visit.

Come on guys waiting on pics :wave:

I prefer fast cars to fast bikes, so I ride a Vulcan 2000. It doesn't quite have the speed that you guys have, but it sure does have style. I have a distinctive custom paint job, so I'm not going to post pictures however here's something to give you an idea of what I have.

I think that's the 2004, I have a '05 but they're damn near the same thing.

Now we're getting somewhere :joint:
Cheers for all the replies guys :wave:

Laxpunker, two wheels is two wheels in my book. I've never been big on the cruiser /chopper styles, but have been on some fanastic coastal cruises on similar machinery. I just love watching those guys @ O.C.C fabricating their customs choppers, too. :yoinks:

twisted passion, I hear you with the 200 thing! Trouble is I'm now living in a country that does it's best to persicute owners of superbikes with astronomical insurance policies :badday: A 600 was my only real option until I get a few years N.C.B.
I've ridden a busa back in Thailand, absolutle madness the way road dissappears in the blink of an eye. More comfortable than a smaller missile too, but as I will only be using my bike for pleasure I'm not to concerned about that. Just wanted something to take for a thrash whenever I got the urge :jump:
It's been a long 4 years since I sold my last bike, but well, almost worth the wait :pimp3:

Eh I'll admit, I didn't used to be a big fan either. However after wrecking an STI I had pushing 700 horses and walking away without a scratch, I decided if the same happened to me on a bike I wouldn't be here to tell about it. Now I'm left trying to figure out how to make my S4 not feel like a fat ass sedan.

Also technically, my cruiser has about 1000cc's on some of you guys :joint:

Good stuff guys!
I just knew I couldn't be the only speed freak here.

Shmike, Of course your crosser counts. pound for pound crossers have almost got it when it comes to grin factor, and any road rider worth his socks will have had many a sideways moment offroad. I can't imagine how I'd have reacted the first time I had a superbike backwheel start snaking under braking without having had a similar experience years before offroad. I love watching those mad arse FMX kidz pulling backflips and the like!

Back to the Superbikes, I honestly believe that these daze when choosing a Jap bike that it really just boils down to personal taste as the modern bikes are just so simmilar. It's really just a case of deciding on the look you prefer, or maybe like myself you've had bikes from the manufacture many times over the years. I've just got a thing about mean green racing machines.

Be safe guys, and keep them comin.
