Did You Ever Think.....
« on: February 08, 2009, 04:58:36 AM »
Did you ever think you might like a twin diesel turbo motorcycle with double counter rotating crankshafts, with enough HP to cruise at 120mph and tremendous low end torque? Well now 85k Euros will get you one.....

Not so sure about the diesel, but I'd take the Tank

133k what in the world(this is not what I'm typing btw). I work my ass off for the two bikes I have and they didn't cost what the tax on this butt ugly thing would run. I really doubt I will ever own one or ride with anyone that does. I'm sure some RUB will toss one in his garage though.

Naw, I may be riding a rice burner nowadays, but it's still a V Twin!   ;D

I don't have any euros, but if they made it in a full dress set-up I would love to have one of those diesels!   BTW, how much is a euro?

  No interest in the diesel aspect of it, no interest in the traditional cruiser style of it, not a chance in paying that much for one so I guess I'm out too.

Same here Richard. My V-Star is a nice ride, but I do miss the sound of my Harley.
