So, who's going to be riding a new bike come spring?

I was a few days away from buying a new 2012 ZX6r last month. Had to put things on hold as I apparently need to get some surgery done at the end of March which means I won't be riding until end of May or early June. Still contemplating on making a deal as I really want a new ride this season.

Everybody's got their thing. Mine is V4s.

Was being sarcastic....that thing is extremely pretty. I have to hand it to Aprillia with their styling, beats all their competitors by a very wide margin.

2012 250r, first bike.

2003 CBR600 F4i! Bought it on my bday in fall, can't wait to take her for a spin

PS that V4s is super sexy.

Beautiful bike. Too bad they don't have a 600cc , I'd love to get an Aprilia with that engine's size.

I'm not ready for a litre bike yet.

Didn't get a new bike but I got new Ohlins FG43 forks, and a new TTX shock so it should at least feel like a new bike ... also cost about as much as a new bike too!

After not owning a bike since '89, bought a new 2011 Fazer and can't wait til spring arrives...

Bought an R1200GS, I figure about 4 weeks to pick up.

Will be riding my new 2013 ZX6R if I can get it all back in one piece by spring

Most people don't know how nice these bikes have become in recent years. They rip.

What's happening with the wheels?
What other parts are you waiting for, should be ready for spring, no?

Was it blue by any chance?

Picked up a 2000 vfr 800 at the January show can't wait to get on the road with it!

really nice bike...I'm working my way up to that. I'll have my tiger 1050 for a while yet though.

Full rebuild with internal goodies, full suspension rebuild, new bearings for linkage, wheels etc, new tires, chain, sprockets and most likely graphics as well plus a very thorough cleaning... Basically a new bike!

Should have them in 2 months apparently, but I have the stock wheels if I dont and I can always borrow Carrozzeria's off my other bike if I want...What I need most is more money! Some stuff is back ordered too, like my Ohlins damper...

I was very close to buying the Triumph explorer, I think the 3 year warranty made up my mind for the GS. I did ride my buddy's GSA, but at 5ft 8, I found it too much bike for me.

BTW BMW got smart and moved the clutch up front so you don't get a $2000 clutch replacement bill!

I don't know what I'll be riding.
It depends on how much I get for my current bike when I sell it, and what catches my fancy as I peruse the want ads with cash in hand.
I do this almost every spring.

I gotta say, the standard RSV4 Factory looks pretty tasty too... makes me wonder if I made the right decision on the SE, which is mostly just paintwork (tricolour as they like to say).

 

[murf]

Do you really need other peoples approval?

If you mean me, then no. It's just an internal thing... since I've been told that only the SE version comes to Canada this year anyways, I don't think it's like I have a real choice anyways. But being an Italian company, who knows... heh
