Let's see your Bikes!

[dwagar]

I see a 'Let's see your Cars' thread, how about a bike thread? (maybe there is one somewhere already)

Here's my new toy. It'll stop snowing up here soon. At least I hope it will.

an '06 Sportster 883L converted to 1200 with all S&S parts (heads, cams, roller rockers, carb, etc)

I can't wait for Spring.

My 07. WeeStromm:

 

[RossingtonLP]

my last 3 bikes............

great looker - but just couldn't get on with a V-twin!

Great bike - but too heavy on the wrists!

Same great Fireblade motor - comfy riding position - but biking's getting too dangerous - so i'm off bikes now!!!

2000 RM250... every mod/upgrade you can possibly imagine.

I did the motocross thing in the late seventies - had a 1979 RM-125 back when they were air-cooled.
Did the crotch rocket thing back in the eighties.

Now I have an Olde Man bike that fits my environment;

2007 Kawasaki KLR 650 - last year of a 20 year model run.
Basically a street-legal dirt bike that weighs 400 pounds.

In the sand or mud, it's too tall/heavy and will stomp your ass.
On the road, it's too tall and underpowered - long highway rides beat you up.

Tops out around 100, but will cruise 75 mph all day long with ease.

It's great for dirt roads, trails, mountain/desert stuff.
6 gallon fuel tank means plenty of endurance.
I put Caribou hard cases (made by Pelican) that are a cinch to remove - lotsa storage.

My 17" laptop will fit on one side, a cooler on the other.

For $5k cash out the door, you can't beat them for a multi-purpose bike.



My bike wish list would top $100k in about five seconds....

I walked out of the room and back in just to make sure of what I was really seeing.






Did I mention I was naked when I walked back in?

On a somewhat related note... here is my baby.

2010 Specialized crosstrail hybrid city/mountain bike. It has front and rear lights, I also have a neat clip on commuter bag that goes on the back rack but it's packed up atm. I love my bike, I regret not buying it sooner.

 

[QuicksilverSS]

Not really....
This one...

2006 Soopah-glide bough spring 07.. its got VH big shots on it now, Venom Tires and a dyno tuned soopah tuner but otherwise stock

1974 RD-350 circa 2004.. what a scary fast little bike that was.. i built it from the ground up, frame off restoration.. after i drug (literllay) it out of a rusty metal shed..... ported it, put a CDI ignition on it and then blew it up at 100 mph... then rode it home with a clanking right cylinder!!!!!!

 

[Ledheadforlife]

Had a bike just like this for 12 years, an '86 Honda Rebel, but I ended up trading it for 2 les pauls, which is what brought me here lol.
