Just a waste of time...

Here's a list of five bikes I'd like to own (aside from my Speed Triple of course) but probably never will. What's your list?

1) Vincent HRD Series B (any model)
2) Norton Manx
3) Moto Guzzi Corsa
4) Bimota Tesi 2D
5) Britten V1000

Wow, that Tesi is one crazy looking contraption. I bet it's what Kulkha is going to end up with once he finishes his vision fo his S3.

I like those you listed crash, and definately love the RC8, elpirt. But while we're wishing, let's not forget about how cool it would be to own this beast....

Y2K Bike!!!

some nice bikes there, I've just borrowed this for the day while my S3 is having a new chain set fitted (aint got time to do it meself), and its awesome, I've had this as a loaner before, and I very nearly left the S3 in the dealers and kept the Vraptor.

I seem to remember reading somewhere that Jay Leno was sitting in traffic on his Y2K bike and the exhaust melted the bumper of the car behind him.

I'll take my S3 and:
1- BMW GS (for the long haul)
2- Norton Manx (for the living room)
3- a tricked out Thruxton (for the cafe)
4- a D675 (for the track)
5- some kind of sidecar rig (so I can salvage a Saturday afternoon by bringing the kids riding with me)

Well, let's not forget Confederate Motorcylces' :

F131 Helicat:



And B91 Wraith:



Two very alluring bikes (my opinion...others amy vary...ask your doctor if your opinion is right for you...your opinion should not be mixed with other opinions...side-effects may include: sheepishness, inability to make a decision, nausia, and impotence).
