I have mostly had dirt bikes, and enduro's but after riding on this for a couple weeks:



I decided it was time for a street bike - so, I sold the Suzuki for a little more than I paid for it, and bought this:



Since purchasing this bike, I have fixed all the brakes, and got new tires too, as well as lubed up the front end. It still needs a little work, but it rides like a dream right now, so until winter comes, this is it.

Post pics of your bike too - of course, please make your own thread - lol

Thanks for looking!

I havn't ridden anything new no. Some older 650 touring bikes. None of their RS or anything that I may be more interested in.

My favorite bike I have ridden is a ducati 999. I would say for a more daily bike it is no good but for a fun weekend bike it is amazing. At heart I can't afford Italian and I am kawasaki man. Nothing tops the ZX6RR Smiley hehehe

Anyone had, or ridden one of the old norton commandos? Or an Old triumph? Those are like the classic cars in bike terms. I love those.

I had an 850 Norton Commando and a Triumph 650 Tiger.  Was always fixing them more than riding them.

I bought a new motorcycle - So, here are some pics ......







I sold my 1987 BMW K100LT for $2800, and then a couple hours later bought this, a 1999 Kawasaki Concours for $2500.
Both bikes are sport touring, but I ended up with an extra $300 in my pocket and I am riding on a bike that is 12 years newer Smiley
