Ducati 900 supersport 1991 white frame with black wheels, red bodywork.
Currently sitting in my garage awaiting restoration. Will be starting it soon, I hope.

I'll be keeping my KTM 990 ADVENTURE though :-)

Dreaming of a multistrada or ktm 1290 sd gt..... but realistically i will stick with the ktm smt, wr250x and may get a mkII versys 650 to keep the miles off my smt, but i feel it may make the smt redundant :unsure:

I could dream as much as I like about my next bike, but my wallet just laughs at me.
I'll be getting my Transalp back on the road soon.

For the first time in years I find myself in the fortunate position of not desiring a new bike.

I have my recently acquired '04 R1200GS everyday and big trip bike, my 1981 R80g/s which is fun and can also do the miles. For trails and trials I have my Beta Alp 4.0.

I also have access to my Dad's Dot 1955 trials bike.

I can't think of anything else I'd want or swap for.

Well, one things for sure, any future bikes won't be brand spanking new! Got to the stage where I'm going backwards in time and really enjoying it. I find that all these new electronic aids/complications just turns me off, I want to be able to work on anything that needs it, it's a good way to know your bike and bond with it.

Over the decades of bike ownership I've come to realise that no one bike will do it all, hence my solution of having multiple older bikes. XT Serow for playing in the dirt, VX800 for road trips & missus, XF for scratching/adventuring and an old Ducati bevel for those heightened nostalgic moments.

No regrets so far!

I'd like a new Africa Twin but my wallet says 'no'! If Honda get round to releasing them, it might be one of these..

Currently a 2004 F650GS which got me back into biking after around 30 odd years and has been great - but now thinking about an F800GS. Just wondering about the height though as the 650 has got me used to feet on the ground, the 800 is a bit of stretch!

I'am thinking about trading my 1200gs lc (2013) in for a Triumph 800 XRX smaller lighter
as I am getting on for retirement.
would like to hear some comments on the 800 if anybody has one.
