I wish... The only pics of my other ride are from after some guy ran me off the road: bringing the total number of people who've hit me in it to three.

Sometimes I daydream about riding the other bikes on this forum though! (complete with "vroom vroom" sounds)

This is currently being worked on and it's nearly complete. I cleaned up the top end and replaced all of the gaskets, o-rings, oil lines, and painted it.

Ducati Streetfighter S

I should have a KTM 200EXC but some scroat robbed it in Jan:

 

[bcware]

I like the ducati, and it's a shame to have a bike stolen from you. How much does the ducati weigh?

 

[FUBAR]

yes thats a nice looking ducati indeed, i dont have a 2nd bike, but i am looking for somthing sporty with a sitting posture where my a$$ isnt above my hands. any suggestions.

i like this bike but have no idea about the performance kawi er-6n

Built this a few years ago. Was even interviewed by Wired.com about it and made Kneeslider:

bc your bike looks suhweet! I love the black.

PT Ducati's are my dream bike (esp the one in Tron) 'nuff said.

Hough I love that you built that my first 6 years in bikes was spent working at our local bicycle shop.

I'm working on buying second bike this summer

That Ducati is SWEET!!

My 78 CB750 build

07 YZ250F Pretty much stock. I nixed the handguards and kickstand now that I'm at the track more than the trail these days.

It's not a very big bike, but it usually gets me where I want to go:

A 1978 Yamaha fs1 'fizzy'
Originaly these things have 1,2 hp, but this one is tweaked a bit. The exhaust and carburateur come from the motorcycle version and the cylinder head is adjusted to build more compression. My guess would be that it now produces just over 4 hp
Currently waiting for new piston rings because it broke down for the 2nd time due to overheating of the piston. A very common problem with these mopeds.

That little bike is sweet!

Aye bcware was gutted, the KTM was the only bike I have ever felt was a keeper. The Ducati is supposed to be about 167kg (368lb) dry and have 155bhp, 85lb/ft torque. Its quite a beast but I am struggling to gel with it as it is a bizarre riding position which feels quite awkward. Bloody fast tho, had an indicated 177mph out of it a couple of weeks ago, was hard to hold on with no fairing! lol
Doug, I like your Husky, I traded in an SM510R for the Ducati and am still undecided if I regret doing so:

The CB750 and FS1 are cracking Am hoping to do a CB750 or similar cafe racer build in a year ish if I get a decent job.

im also diggin that lime green s&s gambler, wonder what that cost to build, and the old dodge

Gambler ran about $16k to build from parts excluding my labor. I'd take $10K to deliver signed title as I don't use it much 'cept for the occasional trip to the bar, friends, and to keep the carbs clear.

The dodge is not mine and belongs to the guy I got the Triumph from. The Triumph is now sporting clubman bars, and a knockoff gunslinger seat from vietnam/ebay.
