What does everyone else ride in addition to their Daytona or Street Triples?

The Bird, or mistress as the wife calls her View attachment 46955

 

That looks like a blast to ride! I have a GT750 Water Buffalo I'm in a slow process of building.

 

Those were called the Black Hawks, yeah?

 

The rd350ypvs was on the dyno yesterday. Did a very healthy 66bhp. Not bad to say it was 50 bhp a couple of years back when I first got it

 

Been whizzing about on this this year.
Cheap, cheerful and got me back on two wheels

 

The classic Fazer. That was the original FZ1, correct?

I recently picked up a 2008 Buell 1125R to add to the collection!

 

2009 D675, 2018 Sei Giorni Vespa, 2019 Kawasaki ZR900

 

Latest winter hack surprisingly good for a 30 year old

 

Looks like someone has carefully kept that somewhere nice & dry.!

yes mate not one bit of corrosion 20k miles rides lovely no vibrations or shaking don’t feel manhole covers etc I have ridden very modern bikes and have gotten off with pains.

 

A lad I knew brought one new, back in the late 80's.
I had no time for bikes back then, but because he knew I'd been heavily into them when I was younger he insisted that I try it out.
Iirc I was reluctantly impressed, although the tyres didn't give much grip when I nipped into a disused quarry we used to scramble about in, & he was pretty pissed off that his brand new bike was blathered in white chalky mud.
I wonder if he's forgiven me yet.?

 

That vespa looks pretty cool, how do you get on with it?

 

The tyres on this feel okay I did go past a sandy lane and think should I? She’s a heavy old girl just pushing around in the garage and that’s without 26L of fuel. Seriously thinking of doing the NC500 on it??

 

I'm sure everybody is sick of seeing this but any excuse to put up a picture
Originally bought as a second bike to complement the Daytona R but has sort of taken over as my number one bike this year, although I am itching to get back out on the Daytona, will probably put them both on the insurance after the winter.
I've enjoyed modifying it nearly as much as the riding, apart from a lot of small cosmetic things the main changes I've done are a quick shifter, tune ECU remap to go with the decat and slip ons and lastly have converted the spoked wheels to tubeless after a puncture.

 

In Perth....30 degrees.... giving it loads two up on this bad boy. Check out the number plate.. Jen reckons a big chopper suits me

 

you mean Jen wishes you had a big chopper?

 

Lol....I made the point more subtly.

 

i did think that actually , but subtle is no good for most of us mere mortal men, i mean, my mrs will often start a conversation with "you weren't listening to me were you?"

 

This is my other toy which is a beast. but love having the choice of the difference in riding styles.
