Latest addition to the garage and I’m smitten!6027E88D-7149-4392-9AA1-659E90E595B8.jpeg


I took one out 3 weeks ago on a view to purchasing.... fabulous bike and handles a dream. Weird feeling revving at lights and the bike dips to the right....

It would have been epic, but need a replacement for my blade for euro trips, and while the nine rt was superb for uk blasts out, I need something like zzr1400 for comfier trips away.

It is an epic bike though, loved it!

Love those boxers, plenty of quirky character :thumbsup:

Just bought this (Triumph Speed Triple RS) a few weeks ago to go with my Triumph Bobber:

I'd like to add a sports bike to the collection, but can't decide between the 899 or 959 Panigale. I'm also really like the Indian Flat Tracker at the moment.
 
As a recent convert to bikes I had an ER6F for two months after my test then sold it in February and changed to what I really wanted all along.

This is my Indian Scout 1200. I've done almost 3000 miles on it since collecting it in March.

The M is doing a lot less miles now. :D

Lovely that pal... Indian are doing some lovely bike atm :thumbsup:
 
Yeah, have to agree :thumbsup:

Not usually a fan of cruiser type bikes, but Indian are doing some decent stuff .
 
I recent placed my 2014 blade with a BMW S1000XR, it’s made me enjoy riding so much more again after 18yrs of sports bikes.

A couple of mates I ride with have them. Devastatingly quick cross country in the right hands.
I've downsized to a KTM 790 Duke and loving it

Few of mine over the last 10 years... loved the Triumph, handling was epic. The blade I had since new in 2011 and did 40,000 miles on it.... travelled all over Europe and track days. Never let me down. Got a few speed tickets on it, and chopped it in for the Ducati supersport last year.

Also working on a winter project converting a suzuki volusia into a soft tail bobber, kept me busy in the lockdowns :D
 
Had my Royal Enfield 500 classic for a little over a year now, it’s slow with a dated engine design but oozes character-also averages over 90mpg touring round the Somerset lanes. It’s a keeper :P

Been looking for an Enfield 650 if I can find one that’s been binned cheap enough.... want to turn it into something like this..

I’ll probably always have a sporty bike for the foreseeable, but want a second one for blasting about on....and something to do. :thumbsup:

They’ve been selling like hot cakes, you should find one soon enough-there’s tons of parts available for them as well :thumbsup:

That looks mint!
cheers buddy, they're pretty easy to convert, mostly a case of pulling all the overdressed crap off, new seat unit, lights and indicators all round, set of drag bars, wrapped pipes and bobbed fender and its pretty much done. Just a bit of tidying up to do now, possibly paint the wheels or have them respoked with stainless spokes
 
I really miss this:

It was 6 years old in this picture and looked and rode like brand new!
