What do you fancy next ?

Should get a few different answers!

Not silly dream bikes but what do you see
as your next bike ?

If you are 100% happy with what your on,
imagine its stolen or written off and you
have the cheque in your hand...

[Tony nitrous 0]

I fancy a Gen2 Hayabusa, the B-Kings Baby brother.

or

Something to take the Mrs pillion on,
maybe a clean low mileage GSX1400.

or

A dragbike. I've raced at the drags for MANY
years but always as a ride-in streetbike.
Always fancied a trailered real-deal racebike.

[fr499y 0]

well if the ktm doesnt pan out, a nice 1100 hypermotard =]

[mart13 0]

since getting the gpz500 i've gone off 4 cyls and now have a hankering for a sv1000 , hence the unloved cbr6 project sat there in the shed

[day101 0]

i wouldnt mind giving the ninja a go really.

[Chadatious 0]

Depend if I go naked or faired.

Zx9r 2003, thunderace. Or naked hornet 900 or naked sv1000 so guna test them all

[dick65 0]

id like a xjr 1300 to go with my thunderace, im passionate about yamahas

[Grumpyowl 0]

I'd maybe look at a BKing to go with my gen2 Busa
But not sure I could live with the BUTT ugly looks or that Detuned motor....

[Davehutch-hutchs 0]

I would have another B-king (if i could find one)

[madsod 0]

think with 3 bikes i will stick with what i have for some time mind the kawasaki 1400 does look very nice ,

[lee1 1]

z1000 or gsx1400

[Tony nitrous 0]

I wouldn't say "no" to another project bike,
so although not desperate there's always a
list of things I keep my eye out for with
the idea of building/restoring something.

An 1100 Katana with an oilcooled 1200 Bandit motor
and modern running gear.

or

A Z650 with a Gpz750 turbo motor
and modern running gear.

or

An original unfaired / twin shock CBX1000
(in red) or a Z1300 in black.

or

An original Z1100R Eddie Lawson Rep.

or

Kwak Z1R-TC

[flange 0]

The new type Z1000 or a CB1300

Dave, like most of us i don't have the skills or the danglies to ride it anywhere near its capabilities.
i'm too old too fat and had too many near misses in the past to do it now.

but having that grunt and listening to that induction roar from the airbox is addictive and for me now its enough to have a blast when its ok to do so but its soooo nice to know youve got it and nowt to prove.. Jim

PS and in the pub well its the fastest production bike in the world (aint it mr kawasaki)

[Davehutch-hutchs 0]

not very good with words , but coudn't put it better

[Tony nitrous 0]

B-King has zero competition,
because its the only bike in its class.

A big bore, 4-pot naked with sports bike suspension and tyres.

V-Max/V-Rod/Rocket111 are nothing like.
(Shafts/belts and funny size tyres)

All the big retro's GSX14/XJR/CB13/ZRX
are low tech and lack the top end.

The sportsbased naked like the CB1000F/R
FZ1/Hornet etc either are castrated or lack grunt.

Closest is the BMW K13R but its funny front end
and shaft drive rule it out.

B-King, no competition really...

Not ridden the new zed then? lol

No, not yet. Would like too though.
Looks good and most reports say it go's well.

I find it hard to imaging that the B-Kings
extra 300cc wouldnt be noticable ?

Seen a stock, out of the crate B-King, in full road trim,
with a rider who'd not been on one before,
running in the very high 9's at the strip.
The Z1000's around here can't do that.

[dark angel 0]

if I could not find another 14
then a CB1300 but only after I had scoured the country for another 14

Its not all about power, and speed. I'd rather have a nice torquey thumping V-twin over a fast powerful bike any day =] If you get a chance to ride a zed, go for it.

[Oldfart 0]

A Triumph Thunderbird Storm or a Speed Triple 'R'

[dick65 0]

top end dont bother me for normal road riding i prefer a meaty midrange with plenty bottom end grunt i reckon most riders use mid revs most of the time

[fr499y 0]

You noticed more people are going to small inline 4's and big twins/triples? Wouldn't mind trying a street triple come to think of it =D

[sweban 0]

I would like to try Z1000, Speed tripel, TL 1000, and some more when i see them.

But it have to wait for i havent got my FZ 1 yet

[jezza 0]

Something sensible so I will be looking at getting a kwak 1400 gtr in the next year or so for some continental touring with the mrs, I'll still be keeping the bandit though.

[mart13 0]

damn you for starting this thread , just spent the last couple of days looking at sv's , oh well suppose i should sell on the cbr and save me pennies cos my life is meaningless without a sv

my mates got one, came to holland last june with us,
he was 2up with his 18yr son, very nice very powerfull bike.
would be my choie if i ever wanted a full tourer.

unless suzuki ever did a shaft tourer version of the busa

I do hope to ride the new Zed.
I can see its apeal and it should be more
nimble (and IS far better looking) than the King.

Different tastes.

I've ridden M109's and MT01's etc, the owners loved them,
I thought they made good lazy bikes
but had a serious lack of top-end.
For me the best of the bunch was the TL R/S.

The B-King makes close to 100 ft/lb of torque.
More than many popular "grunty" V-twin's,
it just likes a few extra rev's when doing it.

Each to their own, different tastes...

Dave and Bec live near me (Gold Coast) and
run at the same dragstrip, Willowbank.
I think its a pretty accurate review from
someone who doesnt own one / isnt paid by Suzuki.

This would be a serious contender for my next bike ZZR1400


Kwak GT1400 is a great tourer Jez, as you know mate I hired one in the U.S. It's called Concours over there. Nice smooth shaft drive.
