What's your dream (stock) bike?

[mrbret]

If money were not an issue & you could have the pick of any stock bike from any year what bike, year & color would you have?

[thomez]

Not positive, maybe this.

[mrbret]

Good call

gloss/flat black 07 Gixxer 750/1000 with the shortie pipe

I already have mine...i looked at 636's when they came out and wanted to trade my triumph in on one at the time. then i learned about the 6RR and had to have one..now 4 years later i have one. and we just got an 06zx10 in at the shop i'm going to have built while i'm away at basic and ait.

then maybe a Ducati 748

$120,000 MV AGUSTA F4CC. Go SLOWLY and look at all the Carbon Fiber all over this bike (including the kickstand) and all the crazy craftsmanship covering this piece of art.

IT'S REALLY COMING

Duc 1098... Then I'd rip all the fairings off, throw on some Renthal bars, and make it into a wicked streetfighter just to fuck with people.

Nicky Hayden's Repsol Honda from this year's Moto GP circuit.

To me stock means a readily available production bike, not a one off, not a GP bike, not an AMA bike. That being said I'd have to go with either an MV F4CC or a top of the line Duc 1098.

:roll:

Yeah and I'm sure Honda Northwest has that MV F4 "readily available." And for $122k, I'm sure Honda could/would give me somthing very close to Nicky's Repsol Honda 800cc bike.

easy there tiger...he could have been correcting ninjanick too...

[Benyen Soljax]

oh i almost forgot to talk about which bike i want. id like to have a daytona 675 or a Team Green zx-6rr. although i havent been around motorcycles long enough to really know a whole lot about the past models, and im sure as newer bikes come out, the 07s wont be super special.

[NinjaNick]

Actually stock means nothing aftermarket on it after assembly. The MVF4CC is pure stock from assembly. Stock doesn't mean whether or not a certain dealership has it. That absolutely has nothing to do with something being in STOCK form.

OK....let's take a look at the original post:

STOCK...not "unobtainium". Again, TO ME, stock is one which can be either at a dealership ready for purchase as it was from the factory OR be ordered. It should be for sale TO THE GENERAL PUBLIC.

So, the closest thing to Nicky's bike you're going to get is a 1:18 scale model. There's no way in hell or any other place for that matter where you can get one of Honda's GP bikes, let alone for $122k.

You win. You're right. STOCK Bike only. To answer the question, I'd get a 2007, CBR 600cc RR. Stock. The black version. I'd have an 800cc custom motor built for it. I'd then paint it to look EXCATLY like Nicky Hayden's Repsol Honda. I'd also modifiy the tail end to reflect the kick ass Moto GP exhaust.

[NinjaNick]

Gawd...haha...Cleaner I like you buddy, but DAMN your so difficult! lol, just play by the rules maaaaaaaaaaaaan!

[exSRAaron]

Saw a Duc 1098 at bike night last week, looked great and sounded even better. thats my vote. But more practical: Daytona 675, or CBR600RR '07

[Loud and Low]

XB RR--if I can find one

1125-probably end up with this one anyway. I'll give them a yr or two to work out the bugs.

[ProudPops]

Nick, where do you come up with this stuff?

I'll take a Britten. They were a New Zealand made twin that dominated the Battle of the Twins race class in the early nineties.

AD Farrow @ Northstar (Sunbury) has an XBRR.

Ah man, this thread just went south. 2 people's DREAM bikes are Buells? They must've been abused as children. lol

[NinjaNick]

I forgot to mention....DAMN BLUE DRAGON, that KTM looks like it was designed by LEGO.

[NinjaNick]

Hey PP, what made you say, where do I come up with this?

[Blue Dragon]

I forgot to mention....DAMN BLUE DRAGON, that KTM looks like it was designed by LEGO.

I sat on a Super Duke and it felt very, very, light...fit perfect...I Believe KTM maybe coming in a little late to the sport bike market ...but this thing looks like a real winner...they have been working on it for at least 4 years...I'll bet ya by spring this thing will hit the market somewhere in the world...Just think of it as a Duc that doesn't cut out every few miles
