Motorbikes? Anyone ride, what have you got.

My Dad has been a biker for almost 60 years and this year he's finally getting rid of his BMW 750.
He had brain surgery and a mini stroke earlier on this year and he's decided to hang up his Belstaff.
He was only a fair-weather biker in the last few years, but i have very fond memories of riding on the back with him and whizzing off to Wales for the day, when i was a teenager.
At one point he had 4 bikes - one of which was a BSA Bantam, which was lovely.

Triumph Tiger 1050 bought new last summer, did 3 months and 8K miles on it around Eastern Europe straight away.
Perfect bike in most respects. Only big headache is quite literally that, a headache caused by wind buffetting.

Hope to build up a bit of a stable of bikes...quite keen on an RD500 2 stoke as addition number 2.

Havnt ridden in almost 20 years now. Last bike was a Kawazaki GT750 that did doubled as my work bike when I worked as a courier in London.

If I was going to start again I'd go for a Triumph Rocket III, and probably kill myself in the first month of rising it

My Son's tricycle.

I think the important part is MOTORbike

VTR 1000 Firestorm here. Has open bore race pipes on with the not for road use covered up by the Manufacturers sticker. Would have swapped it for something newer but can't find a V twin with exhausts anywhere near as meaty and being engine/noise kinda guy not bothered about all the plastic so sticking with it for now.

My Fazer has 2 cans, stealth bomber manufacturers can, and a twin outlet ART race can. Depends where I am riding as to which one I use. Police attitudes, built up areas etc...

Aprilia Tuono or RSV with a couple of scorpion or similar sounds lovveerrrrrlllyyy.

Kick start??

On cold morings he needs a shot of DampStart in the intakes as well.

Anyome find you start getting more fearful on a bike when you've become older and have a family?
Did some stupid things in my 20s.
Not a bad thing I guess.
