Choose My Next Bike w/ A $2000 Budget
Polls can be fun. So can spending other people's money. Also, I'm mildly bored and trying to forget that I sold my Falco.

So I'm looking at couple of bikes and I wanna know what you think! All opinions welcome, unless they violate the rules of the forum, of course.

good god dont get a standard.. because then youll fall in love with it and wonder what you ever did without it. then youll turn others on to standards(NOT NAKEDS) and then therell be a run on my cb's. actually, half of me wants you to show up with some neglected thing(HONDA) just to see what you got...

This isn't in your poll:http://eugene.craigslist.org/mcy/1452892242.html

Or this one:http://eugene.craigslist.org/mcy/1450308511.html

Or this one:http://eugene.craigslist.org/mcy/1447562177.html

Or these:http://eugene.craigslist.org/mcy/1447332680.html

http://eugene.craigslist.org/mcy/1446757030.html

ESPECIALLY not this one,I'd offer $1500:http://oregoncoast.craigslist.org/mcy/1420383563.html

REALLY nice one here,I like the colors:http://medford.craigslist.org/mcy/1449904989.html

So,you see,I could not in good conscience vote in this "poll",not enough choices...

Besides,you know where there's a V65 sabre you could test ride before the test ride...

Of course,you could always save up to buy this,the "Elitist Pig" Bike of the Day:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/JET-B...item27acb5e12b

However,the seller says"MUST HAVE LARGE COHOONIES TO RIDE IT",do you qualify??

Correct. I'm an American, which means I have shitty credit-- which means no K1300S for me.

Could you really go to something as mundane as a Jap bike after the Falco? Didn't think so. Therefore, the somewhat exotic Sprint. Second choice would be the older VFR.

Good point. But what about more exotic Japanese bikes? Superhawks come to mind if you're looking for a cheaper v-twin.

Both excellent points (yours and Transported's.) I've looked at one but it was poorly maintained. The Superhawk is an especially well-suited replacement for the Falco, though.

If the ZX-11 advertised on here with 35k for 2 bucks is as clean as it looks, it's a screamin deal. Obviously, I am a little biased.

Hopefully it's the ZX-11 he committed to buying on the 96 ZX-11 Post in the classsified ads section.
