The Perfect Line Up

[GB]

1.Confederate Hellcat

2.Probably the 1200gs I already have if not a gsa

3.My off road experience is nil so something I could learn on without out growing :unsure:

[minkyhead]

Cat among the pigeons time...

1. GL 1800 Wing. If you've never tried one don't laugh too much. It's not compulsory to have a grey beard either.

2. Tiger 800 ( got one) or 660 Tenere. Both light and at the top of their game.

3. No need really but if I had to choose it would be a ktm 350 exc. (250 with big bore kit)

4. Another mortgage to pay for them all.

Well, three bikes obviously isn't enough but if I had to pick then I suppose:
Number 1:
Turbo Hayabusa streetfighter. 0 - Pearly Gates in 2.5 seconds.

Number 2:
Husaberg FE650 in both enduro and supermoto clothes. *slurp, giggle*

Number 3:
I won't say ratbike or survival bike for fear of starting a pointless "a ratbike is this, not that" argument. But yes, a lovely Mad Max style "personalised" bike which you don't mind scratching, denting and can go anywhere. Preferably with a trailer like this and maybe a sidecar too. 'Cos sidecars are cool. Its the law.

3 bikes eh? Well, I've had a Tenere 660 which was good for just about everything so if I had to have one bike it might be another one of those however to play the game;

Bike 1 - KTM 990 Adventure (in the garage) for long distance stuff, including trails

Bike 2 - Yamaha WR250F (in the garage) for proper dirty fun....you don't need more than a 250!

Bike 3 - Honda Africa Twin (space in the garage) for posing around on in full Dakar Racing colours etc etc......still has to be THE coolest looking desert racer styled bike ever!

Yes I agree very cool,heres my friend, Jonathan Parke and his fairly recent build.

I think I could find some room in the corner of my garage.. :laugh:






Funny thing I was at the Ace Cafe for the sam manicom 4th Book launch. I thought My bike was getting a lot of attention parked next to his :whistle:



That cool he put his name on it




I beleive he is off to the Italian Africa Twin meet with it later this year..

at the moment Iv got, 1, a 1983 cb750 in good condishon. 2, a 1982 cb250 which i am in the prosess of chopping. tryimg to make a little hard tale and. 3, 1999 varadero which Im off to morocco on a cuple of day after the boil. so lots of advice will be sort after at that weekend, seeings the ferthest I riden so far is about 200 miles.

.......when I get back from my Malta trip on the 990 I could be tempted to sell it and pick up an Africa Twin.....and splash some cash on it :whistle:

Good idea, then make it a "keeper".



My third and probably last Africa Twin, I'm gonna keep this one. :whistle:
