Bike me up boys,


As some of you know I have been thinking, planning, plotting that I should add another motorcycle or 5, 6 to the family. Seems lots of people think I need to come into the new age and get some technology and a more modern bike[:0]Let’s get this straight from the start! My bike will always be my baby & no 1, I just do a fair few k’s and it about time to treat her to some rest occasionally for I can make her more beautifulllllllllllllllllll and my long trips away I can carry stuff again.
I have contemplated buying a new bike over the years, but just cant bring myself to do it – what eva bikes I get they will be painted, changed made mine, that’s a given not matter what is it…..I pull things apart touch & change them cause its fun [:p]:D

I have had this chat with few people, but want a new perspective from outsiders. I’m very very gsxr biast but am determined to keep an open mind to all manufactures.
Currently have 2 in mind, who can guess or suggest better?

Facts: Hmmm
love riding – prefer sports bike position
Draw back – not over big, about 175cm, 55kg
I’m a girl……… so people stop meeting me n going OH ya a girl, I might get a complex lol

Current bikes: SF 89 GSXR11 & Standard 89, 750

You could get a Yamaha, people may laugh, get a honda, they just wont talk to you, a Kawasaki, you may well die, a Ducati, could you? would you? get a Ducati?

My suggestion is, you've already got 2 4cyl's, get a twin.

Sv1000n, its a stuntzuki, not too big dimension wise but they're a fucking wicked machine. An SV will be my next toy.

hehehe, We went to a coffee night about 4 years ago i reckon it was, and they shunned us coz we didnt have matchin leathers, i think they were prepared to overlook that fact but when they found out we werent on ducatis or bmw's that fucked it for us. So i came to u blokes and you all treat me how i deserve so. root ya boot tk. I have no other comeback..........
but cheap 2000 model 750... go on jojo .

I'd suggest a Busa with a rather large turbo swinging of the side......you know, something that just gets you from A to B...fast.

TurboKat, why the hell would anyone in their right mind paint a Hayabusa green?????
