well been down the big smoke , oh i do hate that place but the doctors are good any way thought i pass some time and try a few bikes , i know why i sold my monster now but 2 bikes were fantastic one was the old stroodle has any one rode one the other was a tiger  coment please and going by the big life size posters and people that have booked a test on the new 1200 monster 

I am less than a year into my first Ducati, but I still believe I am hooked, and will always have one now.

However, I have become obsessed with Cafe Racers and built my first one recently from a KZ/GT 550.
My next bike is probably going to be a bigger bike but still in the cafe style.

I could never afford one new, but the new 1200 Monster is definitely causing a stir in my underpants,
so when the price drops and they are a few years old, I think that might be at the top of my wish list.
That or a Streetfighter

If anything (touch wood) were to happen to the Monster my next bike would likely be the new Street Triple R.

If i could just pick one today I would say a touring bike. Like a Yamaha FJR 1300 or Honda Goldwing F6b. I like big touring bikes like those without getting into something too big like a fully dressed Goldwing or Harley Electra glide. That way i have the Monster for fun and something more practical for much longer distance riding.

Sport:
848 Corse SE

Adventure:
BMW GS1200R   (if my inseam was 6" higher i mean)

The killer endurance monster from rocket garage , it blows me away. Reality maybe a 900 superlight.

The two bikes that I search for most frequently on bikesales are Ducati 748 and Trumpy 675R...

But there's just no way I could justify either.

In the meantime, I'm building a new race bike. Columbus Genius tubing, Campagnolo Record components...

     Streetfighter S. 

I can't see myself replacing the S2R in the short term. I've only been riding a few years, so the power is about right and the looks of the old monsters are killer. Sounds pretty good too!

If I have the cash, a multi in a couple of years would be nice, or maybe a sport focused sport tourer, like the ninja 1000 with hard bags.

Diavel....... oh wait, i rode one and sold my S4R to get one, awesome bike by the way, have i said?

next bike? i really, really, want to restore a DB1, a black one........

I should have added that I would love my next cafe bike to be a late 70s Bonneville, but I am going to have to find a fair wad of cash just to find the starter bike.  Will be well worth it though.

HyperStrada Low Seat . . .

what a mixed bag  my troubles is the little red head wants to join in but wont ride here self after crashing the kids mini bike  [cheeky]so i am lost to what to get of course if money was know issue it would be a different story , street fighter for fun 1200 multi when 2 up and pablo i had a 900 super light nice old bike but the s2r would would run rings around it in the twisties cheers bazz

Maybe this….



Excuse the Fluro. NFI made me wear it.
