I'm guessing there's probably a reasonable overlap between Carrera-drivers and bike-riders. Since it was a perfect wash-day, I gave the kids a bath; so here's my 991.2 with her two-wheeled stable-mates, both of whom happen to be Italian. A 2006 Vespa Granturismo, and a 2016 Moto Guzzi V7II Stornello.



Let's see your bike(s)!

Here's mine. Torque, power and control really can't be described in words. This is the super bike that rocked that corner of the world in 2009 and all the other manufacturers have been playing catch up since. I've only had this bike for 5 or 6 weeks, but I'm always dying to ride it. It's truly amazing. 2017 BMW S1000RR.

Two of ours:



There is a white Multistrada that just recently joined the stable as my wife's touring rig, but I don't have a photo of that yet. After next weekend I'll have a few ... ;-)

My baby for years and years. 2003 999
1198S. Used to belong to Dan Kyle if Kyle racing as his development bike. This bike is too ridiculous for street. Track only.
Track puppy!
Off topic, on topic, RIP Nicky Hayden. I'm really sad about this today. Non-motorcycle people don't get it, but I'm all choked up today. Ride On Kentucky Kid.

Yes, very sad. As someone who rides (2006 999R) and road bikes, it hit me in the gut. I was out on the road bike yesterday and kept thinking about his accident and then learned of the worst today.
