Yamaha YZR500. My dream is to open the throttle on one of these out of turn 6 at Willow Springs and actually live through turn 8 and 9 to tell the tale.

I saw Eddie Lawson do it. He came out to Willow Springs one weekend a long time ago.

Don't feel bad since that's pretty much the same list as me lol. I just like the 2000-2002/2005-2008 ZX6R/ZZR600 version is the only difference really.

It's been almost one year since anyone posted anything so I have to revive this thread for the new(er) members to discuss and old(er) members to update us on their dream bikes.

Once I get my student loans paid off, I will have the means to buy pretty much any factory motorcycle I desire, seeing as how I could be satisfied driving '04 Jeep Grand Cherokees for all eternity.

The Japanese bikes are cool and all. Realistically, I will probably wind up getting a CBR1kRR, seeing as how Japanese bikes seem to have low upkeep compared to their European counterparts. I've read that the Europeans are making great strides in fixing that though, so my ultimate dream bike right now is:



With the default scheme massacred in favor of a Stars and Stripes theme. If I owned one of these bad girls, I would do so many wrong things to it.

Building my dream bike right now. Started out wanting a Cafe Racer, but decided to build a 1980 CX500D Street Tracker.

It's torn down right now for more modifications & paint. It was a semi basket case when I got it for $375, so I put it together and made some modifications to see how it runs & will look.

Also have bar end mirrors, 2 into one exhaust, Ducati cooling fan, new ignition system and "many" other mods not seen in the following photos:

After selling my RC the wife said I can get a new big bike once I sell our second car...dream bike could potentially be in my near future.

It would be between:

V-Twin Hotness:


Or if budget (wife) dictates cost:



Either way I will be happy to have a unique ride and still have an amazing wife!

Hahahah ! I've been fascinated by the F3 since I saw the first pics a year ago. It's supposed to be a 600 category bike in a 125 package... The F4 is gorgeous too (I love the exhausts) but it seems really tall, and a liter bike is out of the picture for at least 4 years for me. A bit worried about maintenance costs, though.
Can't wait for the F3 to hit the market and read the first real life reviews...

From what I've read about F4's, they are fairly dependable. The cost of ownership isn't too bad if you don't mind working on your own bike. The problem is the availability of parts. I've read from some owners, that parts can take 4-6 weeks, or more, to get to you.

If you have a ninja 250 as your main/back-up, though, none of that should be a major problem.
