Fav plane - easy, the North American XB-70

Im going to be super boring and say Yamaha r-6 any generation. After having done the gsxr1000's, r-1's... There is just something about the r6 that is cheap fun.

Now if you were to say cost is no issue, they is would be a hand build honda from the days when a works machine was a real works machine(Oval cylinder nsr750?). Quite possibly one of the greatest engines ever concieved and built.

The Ducati top end machines are all very nice as well. I'd go with the Bayliss 1198, and a matching 848 once they get the "r" model together.

Fav plane is the sr-71 because growing up it was the baddest thing out there.

HAHAHA

Not steam powered but it did have an automatic tranny. Here's some reading: Wild Bill & The Road Dog(s)

Someone I know has a 20 foot long poster of it, you could stare at it for hours.

If isn't Harley Davidson, its junk those who say different have never owned one. Rode every bike under the sun and nothing holds a candle to even a cheap sportie....the real deal cadillac of mortcycles boys grow ya pair and ride one some day...something about tyhe throat n thunder of all that American horse power is just unmatchable. I love all motorcycles but hopefullu my turn comes on my hog!

Ask your ol'ladies what they'd rather go for a scoot on. ha ha
Get more ass than a toilet seat on a Harley...just geeky looks on all them foreign bikes. To each his own Beemer shafts are a smooth ride bikes are ugly and nerdy looking though great for geezers cruisers...And who doesn't respect the ol'indians and triuphs would love to give a few of the old classics a spot in the garage.

RE:

See,I don't see it that way.I think Harley's are antiquated junk.Even a 2009 has primitive brakes.Not good to get one out of a bad situation.
I also feel the day and age of true die hard bikers is gone.Now, all the people who ride them are followers and yuppie type biker wanna be's.Their friends say,"man Nascar is cool" Man,harley's are cool, so they have to have one to fit in.No individualism in this country anymore.
Now females love a Harley and it's because of the obvious vibrations traveling thru the seat.Had more than one female tell me that one.
Me,I tell 'em you want to ride,get your own.Got no use for dead weight fleeing and eluding.:)
