The Sprint appeals to the inner hooligan in me while the Trophy appeals my more sedate and gentlemanly side (aka, damn I am getting old and turning into a Geezer side)

To be honest, I would be hard pressed to pick between the two if I had the coin to get them. No matter which I picked, I would still be wondering if I shouldn't of gotten the other. Damn you Triumph.....
Well, there is the choice of getting both...

$50,000,000 Lottomax or the $11,000,000 649 Lottery or both if you're really lucky... :o)
Oh, you know about my retirement plan then?

Man, if I were to hit either I would buy a smallish house on Vancouver Island with a dirty great garage....small house to live in and a dirty great garage to store all my toys, I'd have bikes of all manner and types out the wazoo......

Right about now, I'd be happy with one of the measly max millions... :o)

I was at the Dealership today and saw 2 bikes I just love the colors of:

2012 BMW S1000RR

and a 2012 Ducati 1199 Panigale S Tricolore

Image

Wouldn't want to ride either but they would be great in the living room.

Not my only bike, not my dream bike, just a bike I'd love to have today?

MV Agusta 675 Brutale

I was at a Moto Guzzi dealership yesterday and saw this intriguing looking Bellagio:

This is one of my fave bikes of alltime. All the recent talks of Moto Guzzi with TMW buying one has made me think about it.

Ever since the Augusta was on the Cool Wall, I've been talking myself out of taking a sport bike for a test ride in the spring.
I'm so impressed with the Kia Carrie and I bought two years ago, and by extension Korean manufacturing, that I want to go for a spin on one of those Hyosung GT650s. I know, that's a little tame compared to the companies above, but hey, it is what it is. (-:
