If you won the lottery...

[DJFridge]

Sat here having failed to win anything for another week, Wifey and I started thinking, if we won millions would we replace the current bikes we love with brand new ones or keep them because we love them as they are?

[The Idle Biker]

Keep and Buy.

Buy, buy, buy.

Think I'd buy a KTM RC08 first.

I've just had to look that up! Nice! I'm never sure I'd keep riding the old one once I'd bought something "better". Wifey kept the VanVan for short journeys when she bought the Monster and it hasn't actually left the garage in months.

[Bibio]

would so start a collection of classics and i would put together a custom built one for the road which would involve some very very exotic parts.

this would of course be in a different country where the weather is always nice.

costs nothing to dream :-)

[Bluepete]

I'd be more than happy to keep my Tiger, it's all I want and need in a bike.

However, I'd also buy a few for special occasions, including a Victory Vision tour. I know it's a bit left field, and no, I'm not going over to the other side, but I like it!

Pete ;)

[Kenzie]

Keep and buy more! Would love a big BMW 1200 Adventure. Buy a nice house with purpose built garage and workshop.

[Geodude]

Keep my sv and give it some tlc and yc voodoo and buy a y2k jet bike and occ black widow for fun :D

[toxic]

I'd probably just use my wealth to lure women into bed with me...

[keith_d]

I'd probably keep my SV as a general purpose hack then go shopping for:

* a house with a garage big enough for 2 cars and 4 bikes
* an off-road tourer (scruffy looking GS 650?)
* a sports/track bike (probably a Gixxer)
* a long distance tourer (maybe a new VFR)
* an estate car with a towbar
* a bike trailer
* a mammoth order of Almax chains and ground anchors

and the final item on my shopping list:

* a custom made steel cage, so I can ship my GS to the places I want to go.

Yes, to those in red, apart from the long distance tourer, got one o those, but Peg wants one of those RSV4 jobs or a KTM, so that would be bringing it up to four bikes for our garage;)

If I won the lottery, I'd be happy just to have a house with enough room to breath, a very large garage, and a bedroom each for the boys and somewhere for folks to crash after a single malt session with Pete!

...ok maybe a paddock for a red tobiano mustang:D

[Dicky Ticker]

It would not change my life one iota------then again I might be a compulsive liar.I may not be into worldly possessions in a big way but I would probably spend on the best health care available.
Move back to Scotland--I would,but it will never happen as I have to many commitments down here so the best would be a holiday home offering biker accommodation,hire and tours as a summertime business,just to keep me occupied.
Easy pleased me.

[Geodude]

^^^ What a good idea, room for one please DT :D

[Milky Bar Kid]

I would just pay off my current bike and keep it...although, I may move up the BMW ranks and buy an Alpina or something nice like that!

[Specialone]

Id like a reasonable house but in a fecking huge plot of land where I could build a lake for a jetbike, a dirtbike track and loads of summer houses/ lodges for all my new mates to stay :)

A tricked up, all singing all dancing, tech'ed up bike of some description and loads of others, amounting to at least 10-15.

[Bluefish]

I'd get a GS or such like and be off round the world for a few years, get houses and such when you know where you want to live, cos chances are it won't be here :D

[Viney]

Ah this dream....

Mines something like this

Build my own house with a vehicle house. Furnish it to within a inch of its gadget filled and luxry life then fill the vehicle house with

Honda SP2
Triumph Tiger
97/98 996 Duc
Goldwing
Vyrus
My SV

Koenigsegg Agera
Rangerover sport
Aston Martin V12 Vantage
Rolls Royce Phantom Drophead
'54 Corvette Convertable
Porsche 911 Turbo

And for the weekends a

Sunseeker Portofino 48, although a Predator 60 would be nicer.

Hmmm, What a dream.

[Treacle]

I'd spunk it all on booze and hookers.

[appollo1]

i would get the best lawyer in the country and buy the quickest divorce there is then buy a nice house with a decent garage and a bit of land, some nice cars but nithing too fancy and a few bikes.



i guess we can all dream ..........looks like i am stuck with Mrs A for a while yet. ;)

[DJFridge]

I'd spunk it all on booze and hookers.

It wouldn't be wasted then!

[Balky001]

much as I like my 05 636 I'd have to get a new ZX10R with a few tweaks by MSS Colchester. I'd also get something with a decent pillion seat for my girl to sit on as the zx is not very comfy.

[fenjer]

I'd keep sydney and travel to every race track in the world and practise riding til him I was some sort of approximation of "good".

lol

My real name is Sydney. I like race tracks.

[Viney]

I'd spunk it all on booze and hookers.and the rest you'll just waste huh :lol:

[BBadger]

1million £1 hookers or one £1million hooker?

[Dicky Ticker]

:)$5--Love you long time. Treacle you would never last----fun trying though

[timwilky]

The wife would waste it on the kids. I wouldn't see any of it. So no point spending money on something I would never see the benefit to!

[andrewsmith]

okay

Decent house with a good size garage
SV would stay
A couple of the old 750 era superbikes, F4 750 for sure
A couple of the early 900/ 1000 superbikes.
Classic brits and Italians also

Oh any a couple of old minis for resto/ voodoo lunacy

[G]

I would keep what I have for sure. I always wanted a Fireblade and it's a nice enough spec... I have no idea where I'd start spending the rest though.

The sad fact is a couple of millions doesn't really go a long way anymore if your young and don't want to continue working.

I'd buy a sub £1m house with good garage facilities.

http://www.rightmove.co.uk/property-for-sale/property-29718889.html

I'd buy a house in Dordogne Region of France.

http://www.rightmove.co.uk/overseas-property/property-17072508.html

I would then buy...

Ferrari 599 GTO - for going backwards and forward between the two
Lamborghini LP570 Superleggera - For the house in France
Several bikes, whenever a bike caught my eye I would buy it.
A race truck for getting the bike about and towing a car for longer stays in any particular location.

Mmmmm dreams... I really need the Euromillions, rather than the crappy old normal lottery.

[Littlepeahead]

Keep and Buy.

Buy, buy, buy.

Think I'd buy a KTM RC08 first.

Funny you say that as Mr LPH would do exactly the same thing. He currently has this picture as his wall paper on his laptop. Can't see the appeal myself.

[G]

Is it for the bike though, I can see the appeal for a couple of reasons... and I'm sure having a couple of million in the bank would help on both accounts lol

[toxic]

I would leave this cursed little island and never come back.

Move to the Bahamas and drink rum punch until my liver explodes.

[Red Herring]

Retire early and get on with what I'm going to do then, now!
