What's your favorite naked bike?
 
Ducati monster is mine....

Mr Lefty 01-25-2009 06:43 PM

I like the monster as well... but the new 1098 streetfighter looks fuck'n awesome too

Ducati Diva 01-25-2009 06:44 PM

And well... I can't complain about mine either.
Even have a SV in the background, not a 1K OSP, but still an SV.

I used to be really into the Speed/Street Triples, but now I don't really dig them...:idk:

tached1000rr 01-25-2009 11:09 PM

I still like all of the old classic naked bikes as well. I love the triples too....

OreoGaborio 01-25-2009 11:20 PM

Is this naked enough? Either way, it's my favorite naked... though I'm definitely a little biased :)

I'd have to powdercoat the primary/timing covers and the upper part of the chin fairing either white or blue... That would be fucking hot.

Guzzis are pretty, but I just can't get over a 90 hp engine that only gets 30 mpg. I have to beat the crap out of my Ulysses to get it below 40.

deals gap dragon slayer 01-26-2009 03:57 PM

My fav is the MV Brutale 910R... what a fun bike. the Speed Triple is a close second. I've ridden both many times and they're a blast

The white/blue and red/black ones that Ive seen are the two that have been keeping buell in the back of my mind for my next bike.

Cherry bombs look good, but that white/blue is fucking sick... Doesn't look as good on the 1125, but still looks ok. If I'm going 1125, I'm going CR and all black... though the red looks great in person.

I have to agree on every part of that.

That white Z is fucking sick. I don't say paint anything white very often, but put some aftermarket exhaust on there and powdercoat the whole damn exhaust setup white.

Mr Lefty 01-26-2009 09:51 PM

the thing that kills the Z is the exhaust. though I'd rather see blue instead of red... and just stick with black for the seat

That has to be the worst fucking stock exhaust setup ever... If not the worst, it's tied.

OneSickPsycho 01-26-2009 10:01 PM

OH... and red, white, and blue would be fucking terrible. If anything, they should go red with the can and white with the headers/midpipe white.

Suzuki seems determined to try and take that title ever year with the GSXR1000... and now this year with the 750 and 600

I wouldn't have picked red, but I still think it looks good.

Yeah, Gixxers have had some fucking terrible exhausts recently... Oooo what about the new V-Max... Disgusting.

Mr Lefty 01-26-2009 10:12 PM

I thought the GSXR600 and 750 from 06-07 was fuck'n tits... quiet but fit the bike perfect

That Z1k seat is terrible. i sat on one at the dealership, hard as hell.

I'm gonna quote my friend when another friend pulled in on his brand new 08 Gixxer 600. "Dude, your new bike is sick.... but why does your exhaust look like a giant whale penis?????" :lol:

Most everyone changes the exhaust anyway, so the stock one didn't bother me. And I can tell you the seat on the Zukes is a lot better than the CBR seats. There is a reason they were nick named "The Plank".

You're looking at the cylinder head. I can see how you think your looking through the bike though. The cylinder head is almost the same color as the background.

pickle.of.doom 01-27-2009 04:05 PM

Yeah I saw it too, little optical illusion :D I was also wondering who the fucks driveway that is??? I remember taking the pics, but I am clueless as to where I was at.

I'm not sure if it's you who mentioned that very thing to me before. But, I've been putting some serious thought into it. I'm just not much of a bike washer. So, keeping the primary cover clean would kill me.

Then go with white or blue rhino-lining. :lol:

The blue probably wouldn't be too hard to keep clean... won't show the road grime and grease and shit as much as the white...

pickle.of.doom 01-27-2009 09:38 PM

Blus is a bitch too! And yellow... and definitely black.

He hasn't replaced his stock exhaust yet.... and we still make fun of him for his giant whale penis exhaust.

Honestly the Z1k seat seems much stiffer than the ZX or ZZR seats.

Oh yes, Honda's seat. A seat that Sportrider often related to sitting on cardboard. Basically pleaded Honda to fix it. They fixed that for the 07/08 model didnt they?

I'd say my favorite "Naked" bikes are your old Cafe Racres. Just love the vintage look of those bikes.

Love the Z1K. I really dug the previous version, too. For some reason, I've always had a strange attachment to these too:

I think I dislike the B-King so much, because the concept was out of this world. Then they took awat everything cool about it. And made it uglier...

I'd much prefer a z1000. At least you buy it knowing it's meant to be flashy. The b-king looks like they had too many ideas to put on one motorcycle.

marko138 01-29-2009 02:44 PM

The b-king is a good rig if you restyle a couple things.

I prefer the Z1k on almost every level... I agree about the B-King... my biggest beef though is just the physical size of that machine... It's wider than my sofa.

sfarson 01-30-2009 01:14 AM

Yeah... naked Buells and Ducs are on my short list. But give me one with soul and style versus overkill HP, for these bikes are more fun below 100mph, not above.
