[QUOTE=mac13;373132]Ducati 1198 Superbike is an absolute monster. Best balanced bike I have ever been on. Ungodly power and handling.

My next bike will be the 1198s, the 1098 is the best bike I"ve ridden, so I imagine the 1198 will be just that much better, plus it has traction control!

This one
[QUOTE=vettepirate;371841]
was looking for a prewar bike, and found this beauty
[ATTACH]4121[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
It's a 1926 Harley Davidson , i have to find out if it's a B , a BA or a BAE. Have to do a little more research before i start to make it ready to drive. It has a 21 cu in sincle cylinder motor. and all the original parts are there exept for the exhaust and the tool kit.
I just picked up a 2010 Triumph Bonneville...the dealer here had em for $5995 during Bike Week. I've had Harley's all my life and this is a good bike for running around, and seems to have a decent reputation. Something a little different
Got a pic of the Bonnie?

If you are looking for a sport type bike you may want to look at a 1200 Sportster Harley Davidson. Don't believe all the negative that is posted here about Harleys,i have owned one and worked for HD in sales,service,parts and financing so i do know a little about them. The Buell you mentioned is no more like you said but for the most part they were sportsters,don't let that sportsters fool you,pretty quick as is but throw a cam kit in it an you will need a wheelie bar lol. Early 90's and back they did leak oil and had other problems but times have changed. If you do end up with any HD and you buy new make sure to look at all Dealers around you,most sell over MSRP but some very few sell at MSRP. I myself want Randy's grocery getter.
MY two cents are look into craigslist and look at several bikes. See what fits your fancy. I'm into vintage bikes...they just look cooler IMO...though I think vespas are cool too :) Before you buy anything new, make sure you look up some kind of user/consumer report to see what people have to say. I would say Honda or Yamaha are nicely made bikes. I've never owned a harley, but you see a lot of them on the road. Depends on what your style is? Here is my 1973 CB450 Super Sport. Fun easy to ride bike. very relyable. Attention getter...all original.
LOTS of beautiful bikes! Love the vintage myself, but would very much like to have a sport tourer like the Triumph Sprint ST. Cross-country ergos, yet fast and sexy! One day I'll go coast to coast...
