Bikes: Your dream garage of iconic motorcycles
 

You have a choice of 5 motorcycles, regardless of cost. What would you chooses to put in your garage? There are so many motorcycles that I would just love to ride and own. Here are my top five:

1: Ducati 916 Biposto
Oh the dreams when I was a lad. The mighty roar of the beast made me wet my pants! The most timeless motorcycle design of our times. Ever. Styling still looks bang on even more than a decade since release. You've got to admit, the wow factor is still there when you see and hear one of these classics roll on past. Ducati 916, I salute you.

1: Honda VTR1000 SP1/SP2
A roadlegal superbike :shock:. I was following one the other day on my SV. We got onto a nice straight rode. The SP1 was opened up. I thought thunder clapped over my head, then I saw that mighty missile disappear into the distance. Rossi has one in his garage. Sex on 2 wheels.

3: Honda VFR400/NC30
Still turns heads years on. Goes like turd of a spade, and handles quicker than a prozzie on overtime. A real pocket rocket.

4:The original R1
Do you remember when this was released? The press went wild with excitement! i remember browsing through a mag in the newsagents reading the spec and drooling over the pics of the latest beast from the east. Yam started with a blank sheet, then designed this awesome machine. Another icon.

5:Sv650/s K1-K6
You don't think I wouldn't have this baby in my garage do you?! It's have to be a pointy though :D The bike for the real world. 'Nuff said.
