If you were limited to two motorcycles....

#1 Unread post by xsyamahadg »

Ok, so some of us own more than one motorcycle, some of us only own one. But lets just say that if you were given the choice of two bikes to ride, which two bikes would you choose ? A dirt bike and a street bike, or maybe a cruiser and a sport bike ? Or maybe a newer bike and a classic ? Which brand of bikes would you choose ?

My tastes change from year to year and for that matter sometimes from day to day, but for the moment, I would choose my 1100 V-Star Silverado as one bike and the other bike would be a dual-sport like a Kawasaki KLR 650 or the Suzuki DL 650. I think that would be the best of both worlds. How about you, if you were limited to two bikes, which two would you choose ??

I change my favorites a lot. This week it would be the Ural gear up and a rocket three.
When I get tired of the the flavor of the week I usually go back to wanting a VFR and a speed triple.

That's a toughy.

I'd take that Ural Gear-Up for the winter. And a ZRX 1200R. Two opposites; just how I like it.

However I'd also like a Z1, or H2 project bike. :oops:
