.. what bike would you buy today? It doesn't have to be your only bike, just something currently available that you would like to have in the garage.

MV F4-AGO but probably with an XBR fairing. (I like the Brutale but would want to add a fairing to it too) |

I agree with M1, I like the looks of that GP bike. But then again, my ole lady still hope for me to get old and want one of those HD Road Kings... Hmmmm a hopped up bar hopper, oh the possibilities...... |

From the factory in OEM condition... a Duc 999R. Didn't even have to think about it. Any bike... An XB12R built for the track with 1350 kit in S&S cases but tuned for long life, say around 120 rwhp, magnesium wheels, Ohlins suspenders, full fairing but without the alien vaccum cleaner hoses for intakes, CF all over, belt drive with a selection of sprockets and idler pulleys that would allow simple drive ratio changes, a six speed tranny, alloy and titanium all over and a fully integrated telemetry system. |

Right now I would like to add the BMW K1200GT to my collection. Nice comfy 2 up ride. Already have a fast bike, now I need a long distance couch |

Blake, excellent point. I hereby retract my request for Mick Doohan's NSR500, and ask instead for this year's FX bike. But, I want all 140hp, and a chain. |

Probably most people on this board don't like this type of bike but a big inch bar hopper. I already have one but I'll take a newer model (larger rear tire/engine/RSD,etc.). Let's make it a Walz Hardcore bike.

Today... I'd build the baddest hubless chopper you've ever seen. Or maybe a current FX bike. Oh wait... I have to BUY it... That titanium bike with the Duck GP engine in it... Can't remember the name. Quite frankly though,if money wasn't an issue, I wouldn't spend it on a bike (I pretty much have the one I want ATM), I'd buy a Williams Renault FW13B or an F2003GA. The problem with the GA is that I'd have to buy one of all the rest of Ferrari's cars so they would let me buy the GA. Bastards. |

M1...You can buy a custom chopper. It is permissible and price would have to be "no object" if you were to. Funny part is it would probably come from the same company that would make my StreetTracker because I don't think it will ever see production. LOL |

. You can't buy a custom chopper... You can only build a custom chopper. It might be custom to the guy that made it... but it's only custom to me after I work my lack-o-magic on it . |

I'd buy the MV F4 1000 and a Brutale ORO then I'd transplant the thou' motor into the Brutale. When I'd done that I'd buy a G2 Hellcat and a Munch Mammot, then I'd fly to AZ, hunt out my ole mate Mr Witt and ask him where he took this shot....... Rocket |

Price no object? Another one that doesn't exist - an XB12R with XB_S front end, or an XB12S with a bigger seat and lower pillion pegs - an X1 with XB12 bits... Or one of these: One of these would be nice too... And I'd be curious about this:
