OK, this is my last post before starting that yard work!

I started riding again last year with a 2007 Ninja 250R. I outgrew it quicker than I thought I would. I ended up buying a brand new Ninja 650. I then sold the 250, came up with a little more cash and bought my Firebolt. After owned the Firebolt for a couple of months, I have fallen in love with it's handling, quirkiness and uniqueness. Now I also know that these bikes are just starting to be collectible and I also want an XB Lightning. If that actually happens, I would have three bikes - crazy? I would have to sell my 85 Mustang GT convertible though because that would be too many toys and not enough room. As it is now, the Mustang and the Ninja are stuffed in the garage and the Firebolt is covered outside :( It would be nice to have all the bikes in the garage. My car friends are like "What are you crazy?" but I think I've reached a point in my life where I just don't feel like working on cars anymore or doing car show. I still love cars, but maybe it's time to just be a spectator. Anyway, I was just wondering how many on this forum have multiple bikes. I'm sure we'd all love pics if anyone want to post them!
 
I've told my wife that to me bikes are like shoes and purses are to her... Never enough and each accesorizes me differently. My moods change, my bike changes.

Wow, that is a great looking S3, Jramsey!

My S3T has been for sale for three years, many others not as nice have sold for more then I'm asking,so I guess I'll keep it as it doesn't eat much.

I am considered parting it out.

I have a 2012 Mustang and 2006 Speed triple. Unfortunately I just sold my 2007 Buell XB12Ss and my 2005 Yamaha Warrior. So at one point I had three bike. Looking to get a track only bike right now.
 
Jram, i only see two bikes? Where is the third?
Bryan,I guess you don't remember me but 3 years back at Cycle Connection you had your RS when Erik was there, I was the guy that asked If you minded me sitting on it and you said go right ahead, not thirty seconds later Rex Chaney showed up on his S1, got off and asked if the bike was mine and I told him yes ............waited a few seconds and told it was yours......I guess it kinda pissed him off as he hasn't spoken to me since......O well.


Here's the third bike you evidently missed..

It would be a shame to see such a nice, complete bike taken apart. If I didn't have an S3 already, I would look at it.

Somebody, save this bike.
 
I have been riding for nearly four decades. Last year I owned three bikes. Mid-last year I sold one of them. Late last year I traded another toward my Firebolt XB12R. So now I have the Firebolt and my Hayabusa which I have owned for 10 years. These two bikes are lifetime keepers - the Hayabusa and the Firebolt.[up]
