My only current means of transportation is a 26 year old Jeep with 220K on it. I clearly need a backup vehicle, and a motorcycle with snow tires is the only thing that makes sense.

Make sure it has a sidecar.

Make sure it has a sidecar.

That's almost impossible to find

[CaminoRacer]

Build one

Build one

Not a bad idea

[Eye of the Tiger]

Ever see a Ninja ZX6R with a sidecar?

It's too bad Urals cost upwards of $16K

New Tiger 1200 unveiled today:

https://www.triumphmotorcycles.com/motorcycles/adventure/tiger-1200

Pros: Available larger gas tank (7.9gal), less weight, maybe a lower center of gravity, +10 hp, cornering ABS

Cons: T-plane 3 cylinder, blindspot radar but no adaptive cruise control, no more single-side swingarm

Overall I'm meh on it. Not planning on trading mine in anytime soon.

[Eye of the Tiger]

That is a huge gas tank for a bike

I am talking to someone about a bike right now. I might go buy it tomorrow.

[Eye of the Tiger]

Gonna get a bike tonight. I assume. Probably.

[Eye of the Tiger]

Little things are coming.

GROM

GROM

Nope.

Hint:

While quite a bit larger than Grom
It may be out-weighed by your mom
It's size is six-fifty
Old men think it's nifty
'Twas built before I went to prom.

I want my V-Storm back. I loved that thing, even if my feet couldn't touch the ground.

[Eye of the Tiger]

This is a neat thing



Too bad it costs $40K in Australia

2 stroke?

[Eye of the Tiger]

Must sound like crap.

Must sound like crap.

Sounds like a big weed wacker

I miss my bike, I can't wait for spring 

[FoMoJo]

A real beauty...1964 BMW R69S



I always thought it had the perfect bike engine.

[Eye of the Tiger]

Yeah, but those seats....

[FoMoJo]

Gives the person on the pillion a good view forward.  Might be a problem if the bike stopped too quick though.

There are some motorcycle track day events for novices that start in May. Savages are allowed. I might have to look into this. The worst part will be buying a leather suit for my fat ass.

[Eye of the Tiger]

I found the best all weather riding gear

[FoMoJo]

Kinda creepy looking.

Suzuki makes best bicycles

I want another V-Storm. Did I already say that? Well, I do.
I don't need one, though. SAVAGE can do anything.

I was bored at work, so I lubed the clutch cable with a random bottle of Amsoil ATF. Will I also lube the throttle cable? What lubricant will I use? Nobody knows. Stay tuned. Boring things are coming.
