An Rc 51, or an 1125cr.


Realistically, probably something more touring oriented.

I am lucky enough to have a good stable now, I would love the new Ducati 1198S but not enough to shuffle toys. I keep looking for a mid 70s bike to Cafe ,, Have to be careful cause the wife thinks that our combined 6 bikes are enough..

Only sportbikes i would own again would be a twin. Another RC51 or a TLR, or even a 998...

Or an RC8..... Yum...

But the bike I really want is the Ducati 1100 Hypermotard. I am in love with that.

But between the Harley, the arctic Cat, and the truck im looking to buy in the near enough future, it will be a couple of years before I can realisticly afford another new motorcycle. Ill be car loan free in 6 months (for about a day), and i'd like to pay off the sled in the same time frame. But i still owe about 19k on the Harley. I'm all toy'd out.

Plus, next winter im considering trying a snowmobile endurance race with a friend of mine (team race), which is going to cost about 6000$ total (between two people).

Im gonna be bike poor for a while...

I cant see myself riding anything other than a 750. Possibly an 848 or even a Daytona 675.

A Sport-tourer is next on my list.. so I can actually do long trips on my own bike without crippling myself.

Tracy's been eyeballing BMW's and *groan* Goldwings.. so who knows, I might just inherit the Busa.
