As of yesterday, none at all. I haven't been down to one bike, in many years. But the Super10 is awesome, so I thought I'd try to be a one-bike woman for a little while.

This can't last, but my plan is to fill that space with some very different bikes, instead of maintaining multiple bikes that I can travel on. Stay tuned...

I was just looking at the Urals last week, we have a dealer about 1 hr from our place. See you have the hand sift. ::008::

My brother had a Ural and sold it recently. It was fun to drive and a real attention getter. Now he's got a CanAm. Totally different. It's like driving a Lazy boy recliner. I'm glad he gets these things because then I get to drive them.

That is awesome! Make sure you take some pictures driving it in the snow. Don't worry I will remind you :)

Very cool bike, blue eyes. That was the last 2-stroke Yamaha street bike sold in the U.S., known over here as the RZ350. Very NOT politically correct, the old two-strokes. No wonder I also love them!

Here's one for you, blue eyes. I found this last year in a shed, 1977 RD400. Got it for 350 bucks. Last ridden in 1980, but motor turns and bike is completely rust-free. Carbs are missing in photo, but I have them, disassembled and given to me in a plastic ice cream bucket.



A couple of my other bikes:

1988 Honda Hawk GT. I also have a red 1990. Yeah, I like these.



1993 Honda CBR900RR. Bought recently, my first sportbike at 48 years of age. ??? Bought pretty cheaply ($2500), but these early CBRs are getting quite collectible, and it works really well as garage porn. What else can you buy with Ferrari-like performance for $2500? Ha.

That's a helluva find! And a bargain! ::015::


Here's my bike at my place just after I picked it up:




Already bought a helmet to match!

That LC looks so damn fun! I would love to have one of those. Very cool Arai, I've never seen that paint scheme, and I'm an Arai fanboi. Which model Arai is that?
