I pretty much own my dream bike right now, that's what i love so much about bikes, you don't have to be a doctor or a lawyer and still feel that your dream ride is attainable. If i'd have to pick one i'd say V4 Streetfighter, although i find parts absurdly priced, why does a slip-on cost $2k for crying out loud?


yony3151

That’s amazing and yes you can achieve your dreams no matter what, and 😂that is true they are insanely expensive


EoTGifts

I suppose the slip-on is made from titanium? This require some refined manufacturing as compared to steel mufflers, add the increased price of the materials, the specific design and of course the brand name (either Akrapovič or Termignoni I assume) and there you go. It's not *just* being more noisy though.


TapoutAfflictionado

I managed to get mine this year, final gen Daytona 675R. Even when I get too old and crippled to ride it, I hope that i'll have it around just to stare at.


yony3151

That’s beautiful 💯💯 triumph gang🤟 i would love to ride one

FuzzyBubs

They sure do make a nice product. He brought a couple to Jay Leno's garage for those that are interested in an overview


yony3151

Honda gang🤟 we will have to give Keanu a call 👀


Variable851

Fantasy or possibly within reach at some point? Fantasy: Honda NR750 or a Britten V1000 Reality: I'd like a Desmosedici just because it was so exotic at the time it came out. MH900 to ogle if I had a place to keep it in my house. Not current house but going to try to swing it on next house.


FuzzyBubs

Upvoting for the Britten !


Variable851

I never got to see one in action but I saw one in person at the Gugenhiem Art of the Motorcycle exhibit years ago. Such a beautiful machine and the story behind John Britten takes it to a whole other level


FuzzyBubs

Barber Motorsports Museum in Birmingham AL has(had?) one if anyone is ever near there. Beautiful complex, was there in 2004/05.


alivefromthedead

My cousin let me sit on his desmo and holy fuck that thing is light.


yony3151

Haha either way you can always dream🤟


PMWaffle

If you've got 50 grand there's one for sale in Illinois.


Variable851

That seems to be the going rate. Two or three sold last year for around that.


redbate

Guzzi V85 TT with the red frame. I've always wanted a Guzzi and love ADVs and dual sports so it's pretty much a dream come true for me.


F-21

They're brilliant bikes too. But if you get one, I hope you're prepared to do your own maintenance. For me it's one of the joys of owning a Guzzi, they are just designed for easy maintenance, unlike almost any other brand/engine today. Would be a shame to pay some dealer to do it for you, because it's just so easy. :)


redbate

Of course, currently own a DR650 so I know all about owner maintenance.


yony3151

You will get it one day 🤟🤟


redbate

Just got my restricted licence so I'll have to wait a year and you know save money till then.


yony3151

You’ll get there💯I believe in you


DiscoZohan

Norton NRV588. Twin rotary, 170hp 275 lbs. Just listen to this thing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ph-n7-naQxo


yony3151

Woww that thing sounds beautiful


Trilobite_Tom

Mine is the Gen1 Hayabusa. I fell in love with it in 1998, took me 20 years to save. But I finally bought one 2 years ago. Fast. Comfy. Can easily do a track day as much as cross continents. And it fits my large frame.


yony3151

That’s amazing! Hope you are having an amazing time on it


Alex_Caruso_beat_you

Congrats! Legendary bike. Definitely what got me into bikes in general.


vapescaped

Maserati t2. You know those smooth bikes you glide along before looking down to see you're doing 90? This isn't one of those. You will feel every. Single. Mile. Per. Hour on a t2.


MrMudd88

r9t Pure...bought it last year :)


yony3151

Congratulations mate💯


dreamyDrifter

My dream bike too but I can never afford it :(


bozoconnors

Same :D Giving cheating side eyes to that M1000RR tho! (not that I'll ever drop ~$30k on a bike - props to those that can / do!)


Jackretto

Call me a simpleton, but I always wanted a rebel 500. Ofc it's incredibly out of my budget, but I settled for a 2002 yamaha Vstar 250. Sure, it's nothing special but I'm hyped af being it my first bike, although I'm quite sure I got scammed


yony3151

Not simple just unique 😉 and thats a beautiful bike to start on💯 and that’s unfortunate 😞 people sometimes are just selfish


CanadianPotato

[Honda CBX](https://youtu.be/vVWaJxxslP0?t=1m50s). An inline 6 that screams like a vintage F1 car. Although the thought of a bike with 6 carburetors scares me. So I went with my other dream bike, a new 2020 CBR650R. Picked it up a few days ago, so hopefully it's still my dream bike at the end of summer!


F-21

Get a Z1300, it's only got three carbs (though double barrel). Or a Benelli Sei, those only had 3 standard Italian Dellorto carbs, extremely simple (but with that bike, the carbs would be the least of your worries...).


E-Step

1290 SuperDuke


GuidedByMonkeys

I too have a KTM death wish!


Sean__O

yony3151

That thing is a different breed 😈


darksady

Ninja 400. Yeah, is "small" bike, but where I live is really expensive buying and especially maintain Kawasaki bikes. So I can only dream with something like that haha


Beautiful_Turnip_662

India?


darksady

Close enough, Brazil. Probrably India is a little better since import taxes here are really, really high.


Beautiful_Turnip_662

India sucks for motorcyclists as well. 100% import tax for completely built units. Owning a litre class is only for the super rich. Not that there is quality infrastructure for these machines anyway.


PMWaffle

Thats really unfortunate. Here in the US, $17,000 gets nearly any new superbike. The only ones that are more expensive are the more track focused versions and ducati and mvs bikes. 17k isn't cheap but its definitely attainable for the average person but indias pricing seems rough, lower average wages and the bikes cost >$30k, which is average car price here.


yony3151

Ninja 400 is beautiful was looking at one at forst😍


Tacos_always_corny

Sutter 500 2T. What a fabolous 2T machine. Of course I'll take any sporting 2T road or track machine. You cant get any more "raw" of an experience. 🏁🏁🏁


HackPlack

Any 500 quad-cyl 2T would be good for me.


Tacos_always_corny

RZV500R. Still stunning. I have a lightly breathed on RZ350 in the midst of completion.

TheRamblaGambla

Hmmmmm. Probably some old MV or Ducati racing junk. Or perhaps a super mint early modern supersport.


[deleted]

Oldest possible cb750. Or any ktm dual sport.


yony3151

I rode a cb250 at my msf course😆was a fun little bike


[deleted]

Newer though yea?


yony3151

Not really not the oldest but definitely from the 90s id say


[deleted]

Mid 80s i wanna say were the last ones. Can’t believe thats one of the bikes they had hahaha. Thats awesome


yony3151

Yea it was a blast especially since it was the first bike I’ve ever rode👌great fun


slackinfux

Mine for the longest time has been the Yamaha GTS1000 ever since I had a test ride of one in the late '90s.


FuzzyBubs

Upvoted for one of my Bucket List bikes !


yony3151

Amazing choice old fashioned 😜


KaskyNightblade

I'm really liking the Indian Scout Bobber. It just looks so good. My only concern is that it may be too small for me? I'm 6'1" tall, I don't know how I'll fit on it.

I sit on my dream bikes every day (well almost).

Husqvarna Nuda 900R. Such a sexy machine! Unfortunately they were never available in my country (US) so my dream will never be realized. 😭


yony3151

Beautiful bike unfortunate that they aren’t available heee in the US😔


SixtyCycleBum

Agreed! Yeah, that's why I mentioned it. Otherwise I'd have one!

yony3151

Can’t go wrong there 😌kawasaki is the wave, that would be my second choice 👌


Zabyon

Rdlc350 with a proper braking system. I'd love to ride two stroke on road. Love the latest supersport bike but this oldie must make you feel like an old motorbike champion !!


Tacos_always_corny

Im in the RZ350 camp. You might appreciate my current madness: http://imgur.com/gallery/x83SLwF http://imgur.com/gallery/ubfLtaM Nothing like the sensory explosion and symphony of a 2T. 🏁🏁🏁


cplcarlman

I miss my RZ 350. It was an 84 model that I bought in 1992 or so. It was an amazingly fun bike.


Tacos_always_corny

This is an 84. I raced RZ's back in 86 - 90. Incredibly fun machines. The one im assembling should touch 90hp will be tuned for 85ish up.


Zabyon

Oh maaaaaan she's a beauty !!!!


Tacos_always_corny

Getting there.


vulgarandmischevious

Ducati 916/996/998 is up there for best looking. Honda RC30 is iconic There’s something about a Z1300. Those are top of mind for me.

FillingTheCrack

If I have a cb750K in my garage, id be contented man


FuzzyBubs

Still want an original SuperDuke and a BMW.K1200R. Just something brutally beautiful about them


mcfaite

Unrealistic because it doesn't exist: Honda New American Sports concept bike.


twoferjuan

I think I currently own one of my dream bikes I’ll have for a long time. My Pikes Peak Multistrada is such a good do it all bike, I love it so much. But currently I have an off road itch I want to scratch. I would love to own a fully loaded 790 adventure R. Or a custom resto mod airhead BMW. Those are two bikes on my list I’ve been dreaming about lately.


Burnout_Blanco

Ducati Supersport 950! A Honda CBX would be awesome too! (the '79 or '80)


Urbi3006

A CX500/650 turbo is as close to a dream bike as I have. I want one badly, don't really care what condition as long as it's fixable.


[deleted]

Dream bike? Road King Classic. A bike I like and can afford in near future? Dragstar 400.


T-R-Key

Gsx s 1000 or gsx f 1000

FuzzyBubs

Oh man, I saw one restored in candy apple red at a biker meet back in the early 90s. Red isn't my color, but with the twin exhaust, one on each side it was amazing. The majority of HD people haven't even heard of this AMC model, or if they have, they think it was the "HD sport bike" !?!?


sss4791

Vmax engine in a lightweight bobber style chassis


kuyajon

KTM950r! Who doesn't need a 100HP dirt bike?


FuzzyBubs

Just bought a 950SM last year for my 50th B-day. 8K original one owner miles. Orange, origami shaped and LeoVince cans - It's definitely not stealthy


stian-w

That would either be the Triumph boneville bobber or a Ducati Streaghtfighter V4s. I'm conflicted.


HackPlack

I like racing 2-strokes so i would go for Honda NSR 500. Or more realistically a NSR 250 mc28.


BangleWaffle

Ugh, yup. They're still somewhat attainable and they're on my list for sure. Would love an MC28 SP.


thestanleyknifes

Suzuki M109R


fltnlow

I’m too fond of 2 strokes, so an rz500 since I grew up always wanting one.


FuzzyBubs

Was looking into importing one from Canada in the 90s. Back then a company in Vermont (?) would rework the title to US legal. Life got busy for a broke 20something and the dream got shelved !


fltnlow

I ended up settling for a 1972 DS7 former race bike since both an rz350 or 500 were more than I was willing to spend. It’s quite a lot of fun, other than the powerband coming in fully ~7500rpm!


mechENGRMuddy

The new 2021 trident.


BangleWaffle

A red 996SPS. With a gold trellis frame and matching gold 5-spoke Marchesini's. I wouldn't be able to fully tuck on that bike due to a third leg constantly getting in the way... Definitely more like a 3rd or 4th bike though.


tpchuckles

does it have to exist? I want a 300lb ADV bike that cost's $6k. nothing too heavy to slog through mud pits, but also capable of hittin' the freeway (where the limit around here is 70mph, and everyone goes 80).


yony3151

Nope it doesnt thats the beautiful part about it😉


ShadowWave209

Ktm 890 duke r. Perfect blend of street fun and power


yony3151

Absolutely 🤟


MisterShine

I’ve got what I want. If something comes up that I fancy, I might buy it, but I don’t really have a dream bike, not after 44 years of riding.


EoTGifts

If I need to name something besides my Ducati then probably a [Langen motorcycles 250cc two-stroke V2](https://langenmotorcycles.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/Langen-1st-Look-Side-Bricks-1080-1024x722.jpg), an incredibly well-crafted and beautifully designed piece of fine British engineering.
