Long time Yamaha rider.  The FJR was missing something around town.  Bought the Monster for the work commute and <200 mile jaunts.  Still go back to the FJR for foul weather and touring, but for short trip grins and giggles, the Monster has it in spades.

The SRX6, well if I have to explain it......

The old DT 250, I am the second owner, what can I say.  All the other stuff just sorta happened.  It's time to offload a couple and generate some space for something "different".

No, the SRX is NOT for sale, she's a keeper.

  Riding her is about as thrilling as a kiss from your sister 

Nice way to find out who's kissing your sister.

Well, I´m doing a bit of spring cleaning in the garage so after mid October it will have something else inside  ..

At the moment the 749 is for track days and the occasional race, GSXR750.. I don´t know why I still have it, I just like old bikes, Vespa 160GT to make my shed look nice
and the GS1200ADV for commuting, weekend rides, carrying refrigerators, towing cars etc. 

No 'Scooter' category?

We have a Vino 125, and it's a perfect grocery getter / errand runner.  

The next bike will be a dual-sport or SuperMoto...

i disagree. i had more fun kissing my sister.

Pics of sister, please. 

My vote is SuperMoto also. That's what I'm getting next. 

I had the Monster first and use it as my commuter, daily driver, etc. It's great on gas and has been a lot of fun to modify.

The Supersport just sort of fell into my lap. It belonged to someone I knew and the price was right. I've always liked the design and the Hunter S. Thompson article fueled the desire to own one, so I pulled the trigger and bought it.

I still commute on the Monster since I don't want to leave the SS sitting in the corporate parking lot. It's made it 13 years without a scratch and I would really cry if anything happened to it, so I ride it on weekends.

I want to get an MTS or ST as a touring bike though since neither machine is especially pleasant to think about going out of state for the weekend on.

QuotePics of sister, please.

To be honest, I never had a sister.  But if I was kissing this particular sister in question, I might of had more fun too.

Pics are definitely needed here

urban assault vehicle!

My second bike is a R1 used for the track only

My second bike is an 03 Triumph Daytona 955i. Nice smooth, even powerband. The torque curve must be flat as Kansas

I have a friend with a Daytona 955i.  He loves it took, it's got some serious mileage as well ~

Don't have a 2nd at this point but when money permits I'm planning on a sport touring to make it easier to get away for the weekend w/ the girlfriend and not have to use a backpack or large tank bag.

I'd like to get another ST that doesnt have short maintance cycles like my ST4s. Something like a clean low mileage BMW RT would be perfect for the moto marshalling of bicycle races that I do. Then I could sell the ST4s and get a 1098.

BMW maintenance intervals are 6k too. Just a lot cheaper than Ducati 6k & 12k services.

My second is a BMW F650 which I purchase to do gravel road/tarmac/MC camping.  It has turned out to be a fine commuter as well.  It saves wear and tear on the monster and gets about 50 mpg.  Riding her is about as thrilling as a kiss from your sister, but I do enjoy her on gravel.   

The new F650 is a lot more fun than the old one. More like kissing your hot cousin.

I'd upgrade the F650 to the new 800gs if I had no money limitations.  That could be like kissing
... (I'll have to think about this one)
