"Dream List" what bike do you lust after???

At the moment a 2006 Bonnie in silver...

Right now I'm really keen to get a proper look at a Victory Judge - potentially the only 'cruiser' I'd own at the moment. I don't consider the MT01, Diavel or Vmax to be cruisers.

Yes, I like the Judge too. Especially the orange version.

Diavel. And that is a dream. Unless I win lotto.

Always room in my garage for a blue and white TLR, a big Duc monster, HD Night Train, VRod and a Guzzi Sport of some description.

Husband would love the new Triumph Trophy, but at $30k.. i dont think soooo
I feel the Bandit is enough for me for awhile, so no use dreaming about anything else.

I'm still lusting after a Satin black Ducati 848 Streetfighter. Wouldn't say no to a Benelli Tornado either. MV Brutale and so on, notice how my list goes on, the bikes get more expensive.

B-King still at the top of that list. Followed by a Honda CB1000

Older BSA or Trumpy or Norton ..............M109 .......Harley Dyna ............. Guzzi Lemans........ chook chaser ........Goldwing or BMW for those longer trips with the missus ............and.......... and ..............Stuff it ....one of everything

Yeah still got a weak spot for a B-King too

Engine 1,340 cc (82 cu in)
Power 181 hp (135 kW) at 9500 rpm
Torque 108 lbf·ft (146 N·m) at 7200 rpm

if ""Norton ever put it into production..and from what i understand..Norton aren`t looking real good right now,as they`re supposed to owe alot of money to people.....anyway their:

NRV 588 (588cc) rotary...180HP

NRV 700 rotary...210HP


and would also like a:.........1948 Vincent Black Shadow 1000cc


After a recent ride of the:...........Aprilia V4 R

I liked this bike alot, "naked" ,167HP..who really cares I know, but it does it all..ballance,braking,handling,and the engine is superb..low down torque,and top end scream!!

I rode this back to back against the B-King. The B-King had massive low down torque,but IMO,against the Aprilia,had nothing up top,and didn`t handle well opposed to the V4 R. B-King only has a small tank,and is really wide at the tank,I was a bit disapointed with it,as I always wanted one


Last but not least:........Munch Mammut 2000 Cosworth....

This thing is an animal......260HP @ 5650RPM..and...295 NM @ 3500RPM

Some say ugly..and it only costs $80 000

My dream bike is
1.a certain 2002 1200S Bandit TURBOED.
2. an old 1986 KLR 600 in my shed to be put back together as it was fom the factory
3. Gus put a photo up of a bike a while back (Apprilia? in a country scene) he owns and if I could have that bike looking like it did in that photo all the time then that would be my 3rd choice.

Simple bikes and choices for mine

I'm really struggling with the question! There are bikes that I sometimes think I would want then change my mind later. In terms of bikes of 'old', ie one's that were about when I was in my teens or early 20's, I'd have liked a Honda 400 four, Yammie XS850 or Honda CB900 Bol Dor. If I could add a sister bike to Bandit in the current shed, I'd have a conflict between the head and the heart - the head would say get an adventure tourer of some sort (I don't know which one because funding doesn't permit a purchase at this time) but the heart would probably favour a 1,000cc machine of some sort. I do like the 2003 Z1000 with the quirky pipes but if funding was no issue I'd try an S1000RR for fit. But I wouldn't want something that made me question why I still owned the Bandit. Bottom line: I don't really lust after any bike but I'd love to be able to ride a lot of them!

Just for you truck

Nice one Gus, I like your style.
If I ever win Lotto expect a phone call.

Considering you can buy one for under $5000 you wont need lotto .It will have a few kls on it ,50,000 plus but dont let that bother you, its got
another 100,000 in it if its been looked after .
