Hey all, I figured to get things rolling I’d start up a thread for everyone to show off their rides.

Pictured is my 2 month old '23 Aprilia Tuono 660 which just crossed 3000 kms this weekend (what can I say, I like riding a LOT.) Previously I was on a '22 KTM 390 Duke which is now my wife’s bike.

Looking forward to seeing everyone’s rides!

    Just found this thread. Here’s the 2013 NC700XA (muffler was damaged by previous owner)

    Might as well add the 390 Duke since it’s part of the collection 🙂

    Not everyone likes the look of that Puig windscreen but it makes such a massive difference at highway speeds and I personally don’t mind the look.

      Yeah I feel the same way about the screen … don’t like it … but like you, I know it’s practical and necessary … sometimes it’s not how you or your bike look, it’s just how you enjoy it for yourself.

      I dig it. I am actually looking into windshields for my bobber (yeah. I’m old) and puig keeps coming up. I don’t think theirs fit my style, but they sure get good reviews.

    1998 BMW K1200RS … a classic ride, keep her at moderate speed and treat her like an older lady … an older German lady I call “Lotte” … I take care of her and she takes care of me. Stay safe out there guys.

      Great collection! … nothing like a stock of bikes to keep you busy in the off season.

      Love the Triumphs … straight up bikes with two wheels and an engine

      Personally I don’t like riding the big heavy cruisers … but I love the way they look and sound. That’s a great looking Indian.

      What are the specs and details of your bike collection? Make, model, year and alterations?

        • '73 Daytona 500 - bored 60 over, ported and polished valves, but aesthetically it is almost a rat bike. I got this when I was 15. She has been many colors and configurations. Currently toying with a bolt-on hardtail and bobber look.

        • 2003 Indian Chief Vintage. Corbin seat by me, stage 2 setup by original owner - Otherwise darn near stock.

        • 2018 Triumph Bobber. I added high bars, and a speedmaster shock. Lots of parts in the mail and upcoming mods. I’ll be sure to post them here.

        Attached images of the current work in progress on the daytona, and the bobber I used to own that I am slowly recreating with the new one.
