Post pictures of your motorcycle!

Sean McBride · Feb 2008

Just picked up my dream bike today from a local shop here. Been eying this thing for a while now. I gotta say, Money well spent! Please ignore the chicken stripes, its got 35 miles on it.

I know there are some PCers who ride. Post some shots of your bikes!

Jay Evans · Feb 2008

Here is mine, its been 30000km of good times. Geared up for touring in the pics, just having fun in the video. It's kinda a jack of all trades, does everything, but nothing amazing. It changed my life getting a bike

07 gsxr 750
Might trade it in for the 08

Was very excited when I got mine, I know how you feel.

I used to ride around Tokyo on a honda Monkey bike!! I have a photo somewhere.

Got my eye on the Honda PS250 or a Honda Motra.

Might go with the Motra until I can afford something like the PS250.

Motra:

PS250:

the motra is from the 80's but they are both decent utility bikes for the city.

Alright since Hawken started with the 'alternative' kind... this is my ride!

Not my pic tho.

ElysiumGX · Feb 2008

oh shit. Nice ninja. I wouldn't mind having something like that. I sold my bike before the winter. I'm sure the weather is nice in Atlanta, but it's still unpredictable here. Planning to wait out a few more weeks, then go pick up a bigger sport bike. I miss the ride.

Heh, I live in a city - not much point in a big beefy motor bike. You rarely see serious bikes here in Tokyo.

Sa74n · Feb 2008

this was my bike for 3 awesome years:

i sold it to my little brother who did this just 1 month after i moved to london (he's fine)

sean: that bike is just awesome. i rode the zx-6r twice and its just insane

i definitely plan to get one in the future but that probably is still a few years off.

Savage · Feb 2008

Nice bike, I had an 05 ZX6R, until it was stolen right out from my gated parking garage where it was wedged up against a wall with a car, and 2 other cars on the sides.

Get LoJack on that now or good insurance. or both.

AAA covered me for more than I paid for the bike, and now I'm just waiting to move next month before I get another one.

1985 Honda CB650SC
Black, not as spanking new as the photo. But still a sweet bike. Would love a CB919 for the next bike, but hard to find a good used one.

Mishra · Mar 2008

1944 indian chief, i

vintage bikes. they aren't terribly expensive, this was about 20 fully restored.

AstroZombie · Mar 2008

Oh shit, nice bike Mishra! That is totally what I would want to buy if the wife wasn't convinced I would kill myself on one.

Mishra · Mar 2008

yeah, it is well beyond what i should have bought in terms of cost, but it's an awesome bike and i barely splurge on anything, so i figured what the hell.

Hollowmind · Mar 2008

That bike is fucking awesome, Mishra.

Mishra · Mar 2008

yeah, but it has the turning radius of a tank haha

Vitor · Mar 2008

uhh dudes, some really cool ones. My mind is divided concerning bikes, from one side I completly love them, on the other side I hate the idea of kill myself on one. So I only own kids ones, a Honda CRM50cc, a Honda X8RS haha and we recently bought a KTM125 like Mr.T ones. that is a cool one.

Dusty · Mar 2008

I somehow ended up getting this before I got my wife. I had alot of explaining to do! Its a Buell Lightning XB12Scg. You pump the gas into the frame. The gas tank is fake and its where all the air intakes are.

ElysiumGX · Mar 2008

Nice. The Buells are a unique and smart design all around, and they sound awesome. If I could afford it, I would like to ride a Firebolt XB12R.

Exactly the bike I want to get, the XB12R.

Jay Evans · Mar 2008

Wow, a pretty sweet polycount collection. Little bit of everything, sportbikes, supermotos, vintage, minis, dirtbikes, scooters.. Someone must have a Harley, or a custom chopper to complete the collection:)

Hito · Mar 2008

New bike! Honda 599 AKA CB600F6 AKA Honda Hornet 599. It'll be delivered in a few days. I'm giddy with anticipation.

Does the gas sit in the frame or is there another tank ? How does it handle ?

Jay Evans · Mar 2008

Any Vancouver Polycounters..
Just an update, my bike is for sale. Time to upgrade.

Mishra your bike is looking super sweet. Dusty I sat on one of those and it felt like I was hanging right over the front wheel. I have to try one out someday. They are pretty bad ass.

Hito · Mar 2008

Woot! New bike arrives.

notman · Mar 2008

Stop taking pictures and RIDE IT

(Congrats on the new ride)

That's just it, the gas tank IS the frame. And the swing arm is the oil pan. I hear the handling is excellent, but the price isn't.

The weather is warming, so I decided it is time for that upgrade.
