Motorcycle Picture Thread


Recommended Posts

I see that the bike pic thread is for bicyles only. I searched but didn't see a motorcycle thread.

Do any of you ride motorcycles? Lets see yours.

Mine:

1974 BMW R90/6

It's kind of a beater, but it's a blast to ride.

This is an in progress picture while I was shortening the seat cowl. My old 855 peeking out.

Kind of surprised this thread didn't take off. Here's my Aprilia Futura loaded down on the way back from a camping trip a few weeks ago. Bought it this spring to upgrade from my GPz900R. Wanted something to haul gear and still move quickly, and keep a fairly upright position. I've been really happy with it, though the Vtwin takes a bit of getting used to.

Used to ride this back in the day:

Nice! The new Husqvarna (KTM lol) FE450s look sick. I haven't ridden one yet but you see one every now and then at the track. They look pretty clean.

Looks like she'll be for sale at some point...sigh

Just put new tires on the Futura (Pilot Road 4's) and it's like falling in love all over again. Took way longer than it should have to spoon them on though.

On the throttle, up hill, struggling to pull myself closer to the bars, I get this odd sensation that while my torso is moving closer to them, my body's angle relative to the ground is not changing. That's when I realize I'm not moving closer to the bars, the bars are coming closer to me :lol: Really weird sensation, but more fun then a roller-coaster.
