How many motorcycle riders on here?

[Brockmeister]

I ride an '06 elecraglide & an '05 Sportster. I had a sport bike but I sold it last year.

Holy Thread Revival Batman!!!!! I just wanted to post something up since it is rare that I get very impressed with a tool / concept but today I was, this concerns those of us with motorcycles.

Harbor Freight sells this item, $64.00 with a 20% off Coupon:

Motorcycle Dolly - Low Profile

I assembled it today and rode my bike up on it, dropped the pivots and am amazed at how easy it is to shove this behemoth around, glides like it was on ice. Well worthwhile IMO if you are short on space.

It never occurred to me that such a thing existed
This would be much easier than doing 5 point turns inside the garage with the Buell.

I was wondering this not to long ago as well! Yes, I ride. I have a 2003 Suzuki SV650, and it is a blast. My dad and I took a week and rode around the Colorado Rockies, just camping and exploring. No, interstates allowed (except for I70 for the Glenwood Canyon. Beautiful.)

My bike spends winter in the 'downstairs den' (tile floor). That will make it a lot easier to move it aside to open the closet.

See if these pics come through. One from the past, circa 1975: modified Norton Commando 750. Current stable includes Aprilia Tuono 1000R, pictured, and a stock Honda CRF450X, and a KLR650 with a ton of performance mods. Many bikes, dirt and street, before and after the Norton to date. 63 years old and still addicted to speed.

Picked up a 2003 S last October purely for pleasure use, to put the top down and slam it through the twisties. Previous convertibles back in the Stone Age include an Austin Healey 3000 Mk3, and a Triumph Spitfire. So far the Boxster is everything I hoped it would be.

Exactly like you guys, I had never known of something like this or it's existence before hand. That is exactly why posted it up LOL, been jockeying bikes around either in garages or in my basement for decades, not any more.

Nice Coreseller! I just may have to go to Harbor Freight and get myself one for the Daytona. Fortunately I has plenty of indoor garage space but you never know.

I have been riding for 45 years. I have owned 429 vehicles through the years. Including 23 Porsches. 118 were bikes . Most every make and model you can think of. I presently own 4 bikes, 2 are Honda Valkyries, that's right, a 6 cylinder liquid cooled Boxer motor with six carbs. 100hp and 125 ft/lbs of torque @ the rear wheel and only 650 lbs. It is so smooth I can stand a nickel on it's edge on the valve cover, start and rev the engine, and it will not move.
My daily driver is a boxer engined Scion FRS.
Attached is a pic of my latest 2 Valkyries that I have. Both are 18 years old bikes that I built from wrecks.

You like pancakes. As in pancake engines. Were all the Porsche's flat 4/6s?

Cool bikes.

Luckyed,
What a stud (and I mean that as a strictly heterosexual compliment)! Some great bikes in that pile, not to mention cars (Healy 3000? sweet!). Good to see you spanning that many years and still enjoying it.

This is my baby... 2007 Ultra Classic. She's not fast but I love cruising around the state with my wife.

Me too.... 2009 Yamaha 950 Tourer

No, 4 of them were 928's of various years and there were a couple 944's and a couple of 924S's too.
One was a Beck 550 replica pushing 200hp and there was a hand built 917 replica with a flat six too. (9) 914's of various years and engines and the rest were air cooled going back to the late 60's. I am currently enjoying a late model 986. The thing they all have in common is that I am sorry I don't have them all today.

[Nine8Six]

so so so cool thread, keep the pics coming! hehe

It has been said that Motorcycle riders make better car drivers. You guys have some bikes that are real beauties.

I have been riding motorcycles for 45 years and have owned 36 different bikes. 9 at one time is the most. Today there are 7 in the garage, but only 2 are mine.
3 are my sons bikes and 2 I am working on for a friend. Here is my Triumph Rocket III and Thunderbird Sport.
