Holey moley! A 2 liter bike that weighs 430 lbs? Would it even stay on the ground once you twist your wrist?

"Only" 110,000 Bucks, huh?! Well DANG IT, that's just my luck!!!  Yep!!! If it wasn't for the fact that that's just about the exact amount my financial portfolio is down this past year, I might'a considered buyin' one o' those suckers!  (not) 
Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)

Always remember to be yourself. Unless you suck. Then pretend to be someone else.

US$110,000??? 190 mph??? 5-speed transmission??
Well, I guess it makes the argument FOR the Thunderbird even more convincing!!
Although, I sort of expect to see the Terminator or Robo-cop riding one these things. I can't see anyone "just taking it out for a day-long ride" or riding it to a meet.

Now, that would be a good thread...
With the amount of money you've lost in your 401k this year, what bike would you buy?

I had to go back to touring full time and it's killing my riding time....

Well Mike, if you took all the money my wife and I have lost in all our investments, and added that to the lost equity in our two homes...well...I might have been able to afford one of the greatest pieces of motorcycle engineering ever to have graced Daytona International Raceway or just about anywhere, for that matter...The Britten V1000.

(I hear any of the ten ever made by that late great Kiwi genius, John Britten, will presently set you back a cool quarter million bucks U.S. or so)

mmmm...priced just right for those Wall St Masters of the Universe types. I hope they all buy one and ride um into a wall. Having said that it looks the business but uncomfortable as heck 
...yes, that is a single seat...no, I will not put the other seat on...yes, I am selfish...yes, you should buy your own bike
