Great bikes you got there. Always wanted a Ducati, probably because I am impartial to V-Twins' sound. I hear they are the best balanced sport bikes out there. The Rigid, now that's a beauty. Apes, springer, slim tank, kick start... everything a true chopper should have. Suicide too? Well done!

I've been without a saddle for 3 years now. After we lost one of ours on a ride through Muskoka, I decided to take a break from all the madness. I started with few Jap cruisers before moving on to an '05 Ultra, then an '09 FLTR (a fully custom, 9 seconds bike that I totaled) and then a milder '11 FLHXSE2 (pic bellow). We've done Daytona many times and Sturgis once, no trailer. Been a part of a club too, but turned my patch in when it started heading in the direction that I did not want to be a part of. All those guys that came for a drive with me are my biker buddys, we will def do a ride together next season.
Now I just fly places and rent bikes occasionally to get my fix.

Incidentally, it was motorcycling that got me into Porsches. I was on a nice late winter/early spring ride many years ago when I stopped and found another motorcyclist who also rode at this time of year. Turned out he was a Porsche salesman; we became friends and after many years of admiring OPPs (other people's Porsches) and visiting him at work I bought one.




My first Harley (and first ever bike that I bought new) after having had several old Japanese bikes. I rode this bike from Toronto across the USA and up the Pacific Coast from Southern California to British Columbia.





My first Triumph, a blast to ride but I decided it would be great for the track but that I didn't love it on the street; not around the GTA anyway.





My current, and currently only, motorcycle.

Thats some serious hardware 1965356! My days of roadracing are long gone. Did some during the 80's. Also MX, Endoro, Ice racing and even Trials. Present rides include Triumph 955i Tiger, and a 1970 Triumph Trophy.

I have been riding bikes since I was 16. Sold the last bike to buy my first porsche back in 2009. It was a 1999 VFR 800. Beautiful street bike. Still miss it.

Nope not while the kids are still young. Too much motorcycle tragedy among my friends and employees, got me freaked out. I will get back on when they are not depending on me.
