Show us yer bike!

[Lynx.1677]

Show is your motorbikes, past & present. Here's a couple of pics of my bikes, past and present. Still got my trusty Hornet though.

Yes, my bikes history is a little like my heli history. I get bored quickly (somehow though I still have the same wife.......:))

My fave bike still has to be the Hornet. Not as focused as the Ninja's but still can keep up with weekend warriors on their R1's in the twisties. :cheers2:

The VFR before and after shot is what happens when you try to stop a Vauxhall Omega with your face. :ack2:

Dirt bikes was my thing until I got hooked on model helis....

Had some fab bikes, but sadly decided to call it quits after being taken out by a blind old bird in a Nissan Micra on a roundabout on my Honda 900RR last August. Waited ages to get it serviced, new brakes, all polished and shiney....first ride out.........bang. Didn't even get out the car to help me get the bike off or to see if I was okay, just left me lying in the road whilst she rang her insurance !!.

Spent the next 4 months trying to stop her claiming off my insurance, even with two eye witnesses.

Loved my bikes, but too many people not looking what they are doing, talking on mobile phones, or just plain bad driving. Everyone should be made to ride a bike in my opinion, would improve car driving no end.

Still feel envious when I see one go flying past :-(

Cheers,

Simon

Might as well join in :)

This is the medium sized toy, changed from Ducati to this about 16 months ago, never regretted a single moment :D

I know what you mean. I was out on a ride with a few mates about a year or so ago when one of our group was killed. Certainly rang some alarm bells for me. Ever since then I have not enjoyed bikes as I used to. I'd much rather spend all my money on heli's which are (relatively) safer.

Here's a pic of my old yamaha raptor 660 quad, just sold it last year due to lack of use but miss it already, also had a GSXR400 and a GSXR600 in the past but dont have any pics of them to hand, hoping to get myself a GSXR750 to play on this summer..

Yea it's a 99 standard R6, still got the original can but it still goes like a scolded cat.
