Here is my f800gs. So far I've added a HID headlight, crash bars, skid plate, tall windscreen (two different types), barkbuster hand gaurds, Jesse Luggage, and Pivet pegs. Getting ready for Death Valley in September!

Ran into this bike the other day.
Honda CBX that was converted into a V12.
He split two stock cases and made one out them.
Tank and all the body work is home built, well, pretty much everything is, in order to fit the motor. It has a fairing on it now and the front fender is gone, too.
Found the photo on the interwebs.

That is actually a prototype engine built by an Aussie named Dave Haynes. It is known in the speedway world as the Haynes engine. It is the only one that was built.

The frame that it is in is of my own design and fabrication.

Nice. That TL is a freaking torque monster isn't it! I think it'll be a valuable collectors bike one day.

Yes, the TLR has awesome torque and sound! Of all the bikes I've owned I think that's my favorite, just because of the engine. I just sold it a few weeks ago and I'm wishing I hadn't. It was a little too heavy and handling was a little weird, but the engine quickly makes you forget those things.

The VFR is even heavier and makes less power, but it handles like it weighs 100 pounds less, and it's slightly more comfortable. The factory hard side cases are nice too. It's a great bike, but it doesn't really thrill.

Here we are on the Tail of the Dragon earlier this year

Yup. I would like to find a nice non "S" SV1000. I know the motor is somewhat tamer than the TL, but I am addicted to that grunty torque. There are lots of SV1000s and some SV650 standards, but the SV1000 standards seem hard to come by. I know they weren't that popular, but they are just what I am looking for. Affordable too.

first solo bike ride, she did great... numerous stalls due to lack of familiarity with the controls (despite being a lifelong driver of standard transmission vehicles ), but she kicked it back to life herself every time

It's a kickass bike. I ride from work (Moses Lake, WA to home Vancouver, WA) every other weekend to see the family.

I'll take the direct route home, and the twisty, mountain, dirt, etc way back to Moses Lake.

hill climbing. but up here there aint much hills, it was done as a see if it can be done.. a sled engine in a quad. i just picked up an electric start for it so no more thrown shoulders trying to fire this beast up. she shoots dirt roosters for a good truck length when you lay into her. just another toy that collects dust

Not my garage, but my 1972 Trident T150V (5-speed). My first street bike, ever. 10,000 original miles, matching numbers, all receipts back to new. I'm the 3rd owner - the last owner had it since 1973. Just tweaking a few little things then we're good to go.
