Great idea @Vigster ! I’ll kick it off with my 2007 Harley Softail Deluxe that’s been customized for that old school look in both solo and 2-up configurations. One of the greatest compliments that I ever received was "that thing looks like a Cadillac" as I was pulling up to a biker bar. Many years before I ever considered buying a Cadillac.

Do previous bikes count?

Because of my back surgery my doctor does not want me riding anymore so I have not been on a bike in 3 years.. Here some of my old bikes.. A few from the last couple of years.

1994 Honda VFR750
2004 Suzuki SV650

Two GREAT bikes.

Pics and stories about the VFR.

The acquisition of a very fine ride

I graduated from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in 1994. I had decided that I was going to buy a bike once I graduated. I had studied ...

"I just got a new bike!" Or "The VFR Rides Again!!!"

I just got a new bike!!! Well, not really, but it feels like it. This is my 1994 Honda VFR750, back on the road yesterday after over a year...

I had seen lots of posts about other people's cars. I wondered if anybody else had bikes for their other toys.

How do you like the Diavel?

 

[CBH]

Its an XDiavel, and I love it. The chopper proved too unreliable and scraped in the corners. But overall rode infinitely better than you would expect.

Ironically, I went with the Caddy because its the best of all worlds - plush, fast, track day today and grocery getter tomorrow.

I thought the chopper could do it all, but after having it, I specialized. The Harley is wonderful. It's comfy, nimble, beautiful, and has an enormous passenger seat. The wife loves it.

But when doing all the customization, I realized I could get another entire bike for what more horsepower in the HD would cost.

So I bought the Ducati. It is the perfect solo bike. It has Ducati's racing engine, yet its in a comfy package. Nobody else puts their full-on racing engine in a bike with a comfortable riding position. And its beautiful. Turns heads every time I stop.

I highly recommend it.

Too many to remember. Finally gave up riding after being hit from behind by someone running a red light. Enough pins and screws in the right shoulder to convince me to equip my BW with the A10.

Recently sold as part of a plea deal purchasing 1994 Land Rover Defender!

Here are some random pics, one is of my garage right now...always tinkering. It's too scary to be in the house with a wife and two teenage daughters...they steal a slice of your soul if you look at them wrong 🤓

The destroyed R1 on the crash truck is Jake Gagne's bike when he crashed at Brainerd last year (for anyone that follows MotoAmerica).

Love a garage full of bikes. I had 7 at one point in a1 1/2 car garage. Had to thin the herd, too many friends expecting me to loan when they were down. Got old real fast.

Little hot rod Sportster I've had for awhile. Figured was time to give it some love. Should be road ready for the spring.

Here's a guy I can relate to! 😂 I had five at once and yes

I guess could consider this my primary 2 wheel ride😎 '15 CVO Streetglide. It's cammed, V&H SS exhaust, Dynojet piggyback with 18mm wideband O2's. All 12 point stainless hardware. Ark Audio amp w/Focal speakers. Drowns out wife🤣. Love the 70's heavy metal flake. May or may not be last new bike purchase, never know.
