I would say these 5!!!!!!

 

Re: If you could own any five motorcycles that are not Xj's.

No such thing as a motorcycle I dislike but if I had to choose five for keeps i'd have 1973 Triumph X75 Hurricane, 1960 BSA Gold Star, 1978 Van Veen OCR (because they're odd), 1983 Hesketh V1000 and an early as poss Kawasaki Z1000 (and shares in a chrome polish company).

Bikes that I'm actually looking for (not dream bikes) . . .

A BMW with anti-lock brakes
A better Venture Royale than the one I bought cheap
A 350 enduro 4 stroke that's under $1000
a Kawasaki Concourse that's not ate up in miles

Now if someone else is paying, it's gotta be a Boss Hoss because everyone looks when you put 1,000 horsepower to the ground !!

EDIT: A few more views . . .

Re: If you could own any five motorcycles that are not Xj's.

i have 6 bikes now and would love to add a 2010 v-max but will have to sell some to make room for it...

 

Ducati Streetfighter
R1 with the crossplane crank
Suzuki B-King
Buell 1125CR
Confederate Hellcat

and I'm spent

 

In an order that may someday happen;

BMW F650GS (800)
81-83 XJ750 SECA
BMW R1200R
Yamaha XJ6 Diversion
Zundapp GTS 50 (because it's fun to be 15 yrs old again sometimes)

 

Odd. Not a single request for a Vincent Black Shadow..?

 

shooter did. look up.

 

Re: If you could own any five motorcycles that are not Xj's.

OK, so this is a fantasy list? If i could own five bikes they would be:

1. Brough Superior SS100



2. Britten V1000



3. Suzuki RE5 Rotary



4. Munro Special (World's Fastest Indian)





5. Yamaha RD400

 

well, the RD is obtainable!!!

 

Re: If you could own any five motorcycles that are not Xj's.

Unlike most of the other posts on here, my dream garage is full of new bikes. As much as I love and appreciate old motorcycles, after my XJ I don't plan on owning a single non-fuel-injected bike. I ride my bike too much to want to mess with carbs anymore, and with a newer bike it will be my primary vehicle so I want to turn the key and go. Plus as an Engineering student I'm fascinated by a lot of the new innovation in bikes.

Sorry for the large pics!

1. Triumph Speed Triple: planning to purchase one as a "graduation gift" to myself next year, love the sound, the looks, the "soul" as I've heard it put.


2. Ducati Hypermotard: seem like a fun balls-to-the-wall thrasher for way too much money


3. Victory (honestly don't know the model): guy I work with has 1 like pictured (plus a few mods) and it has got to be the coolest American bike I've ever seen and heard.


4. Buell Lightning: one of my best buds has one, it's a blast to ride and very unique sound and design. Very short wheelbase can be tricky though.


5. BMW 1200 GS: another buddy had one before he bought his 'Busa, would be a great every-day bike

 

does anyone know what this color is called?
