Yamaha R1

Tech · 11-06-2003, 11:13 AM

i've always liked the look of the V-rod, the kinda "exo-skeleton" framework

Sion · 11-07-2003, 03:45 AM

I think the Honda VTX 1800 utterly magnificent. I want one SOOO bad. (Anyone wanna gimme $13k so I can get one?) The only thing I dont like about the VTX (and this is something that exists on a lot of bikes these days) is the exhaust is only on one side. I want DUAL PIPES, if only for aesthetic balance.

I love the black/grey scheme.

Gotta vote for the Ducatis as far as dreaming goes. Realistically the R1s are pretty damn sweet.

Baldrick · 12-05-2003, 05:43 PM

I love the look of the Rune, but it's a little pricey for me right now. I agree with Sion, the VTX 1800 is my next bike for sure. Was out looking at them today, and will have one for next season.

herostar · 12-06-2003, 10:36 AM

I like the vrod w/o the solid wheels... otherwise it's either Aprilia or Ducatti for the coolest bikes

RotEx · 12-06-2003, 12:25 PM

Nothing mentiond holds a candle to this

Baldrick · 12-06-2003, 04:54 PM

Wow, that's the first time I've seen West Coast Chopper's completed El Diablo II! Very nice!

I don't think I'd ever want to own a custom chopper, but man they're nice to look at and drool over!

Moonduck · 12-07-2003, 11:15 AM

Why, oh why, did they have to make it a freakin' Slushtail?

because it's "cool" and "badass", dude
and
it's the popular chopper thing to do, you know, choppers are supposed to be comfortable, duh

Moonduck · 12-10-2003, 04:59 PM

Good point. I can see making a Slushtail chopper out of something that never was meant to be a Slushy, like a swingarm UJM, just for the novelty factor. That would be cool, because it would represent some serious fab and redesign work. Grabbing a Paughco/Santee/Jaffee/whatever Slushtail off the rack (I don't care how much fru-fru downtube work you do) ain't sick in a good way. It's just blah.

Chops should be rigid, unless your doing a Bay-area swing-arm (or something similar) as a period Kustom.

Comfortable, my arse...

ledhead · 12-10-2003, 05:28 PM

personally i love the old school kind of choppers. go google indian larry. he makes sick bikes.

cartmen34 · 12-11-2003, 08:02 AM

Another vote for the Duck. 916-998, not the new 999.

Lov the R1 In blue, but I have really been liking the KTM street bikes intresting look too! Can't seem to find any good links to a page of the street KTMs. The lastest cycleworld had a real good article!

pilot123 · 12-16-2003, 05:45 PM

I personnally like the look of my Suzuki TL1000R, although the new R1 is sweet too.

Baldrick · 12-16-2003, 08:26 PM

For radically designed choppers, I love the look of Billy Lane's bikes, and his rear hubless wheel is probably my favorite. I'm very much in love with that hubless rear wheel!

I think I like the look of the Psycho Billy Cadillac more than the Camel. It just seems to flow a little nicer.

For old school choppers, definitely Indian Larry. His Wild Child bike is simply beautiful.

ziadel · 12-17-2003, 02:37 PM

*drool* if honda doesnt make a road going version of these, I'll shoot someone...
