Showing (off) your Motorcycles

Nice Replika what year is it, ran from ‘99 to 05 in U.K., did consider one myself back when they came out but always ended up with something else. Had an RT at around that time amongst others from what I remember.
Looks mint especially considering the age :+1:.

It’s 2005, last year which here in USA was slightly different to previous years in paint scheme only I think and possibly std SS Laser exhaust.
It is absolutely mint, maybe even better shape than my 19 Z900RS.

Also guilty of chronic car under use :flushed_face:

I’ve done about 1500 miles in this in the past 3 years - but 22,000 on the current S1000R in that time

Not really..or time flies.
I had it 29 months total.
So nearly 2.5 years.
I think…lol

to get us back on to bikes :slight_smile:
Here are some pics of what my custom bike looked like several years ago (2009 Victory Kingpin):




And here is the current bike with custom paint (2012 Victory Cross Roads):

You should have kept the titles consistent, as that is nothing like this thread title.:thinking:

It’s an existing topic, predates this one, but I like consistency as well so that’s now done …

Not seen in a while as I had to replace the combo water/oil pump ( stupid design!!) which had failed.
Tweaked the carbs some more and adjusted valve clearance.
First run out again today.

Took the BCR for its first decent run this morning and I think I am really going to enjoy this bike.
Its very similar riding experience to a Honda VFR, effortless, relaxed but you find you have eaten up more miles, faster than you thought.
While the seat is high, I am at tiptoe at a standstill, the riding position itself is excellent for myself and the Sargeant seat is very comfortable,
Well impressed all round.
Oh and multiple thumbs up from cars, trucks, bikes and peds to boot.

Your appetite (for boys toys) is voracious! :grinning_face:
Don’t you feel sad for the one’s not getting attention at times?
I know i do, when it comes to my appetite for turntables.

Not really as there are 7 days in a week so they all can get a turn during a single week :innocent:

And I am also trying hard not to look at turntables…lol.

I already have too many guitars, which is another type of sickness entirely!

Went out for a very pleasant ride this morning to a local car show, took the BCR where it excelled on the single track roads I took and that Sargeant seat is VERY comfy.
Digging through my wardrobe this morning I realised I had a Alpinestar padded leather jacket that is same colour scheme as the BCR, win!
