You never cease to surprise me SC, cool hobby you have there and excellent taste in bikes. My first bike was a 93' Suzuky Katana (can-of-tuna) as it was affectionately known by the motorcycling world, then I had a 1995 Ninja ZX7R, I loved that bike and wish I still had it. Nice choice on the 92' and the future Yamaha, man you are going to pay a pretty penny for that animal if you can find one. I would love to have a Ducati 888 and a Honda RC30 myself.

I sold 15 of them because we torn down and home and build a new one in its place, only have room for 18 bikes there now,
I have a 0 mile RC 30 and a RC 45 0 mile, a 1986 Gsxr 750R dry clutch 0 mile, 1989 GSXR-750RK 0 mile,1987Yamaha FZR 750 R. 0 mile. 1979 Suzuki GS 1000 Wes Cooley 0 mile. Honda VF-1000R 0 mile, 1983 Honda Interceptor 0 mile, 1978 Kaw Z1-RTC, 1982 Kaw Eddie Lawson, a Suzuki Gamma, Honda NS400R, 1961 Honda Super Hawk 305, and a few more elswhere. But I need a 1989 owo1.

I just learned something... I did not know the 305 Superhawk was made in 1961.. I had a 66 305 Superhawk back in the day. put over 20,000 miles in it.
I also had a 83 VF750F, Interceptor in 1984 to 1990...

My Kawasaki just came in, looks fine. My hauler drives a 2012 Chev 1 ton diesel and pulls a 40 ft. trailer, his truck has 225,000 miles on it, he said he lost a trans in it this summer, plus the dip stick is to long and wore a hole in the buttom of the pan. So much for Gov. pickup trucks.

I may be old but I still like to ride my Buell 1125R! Dw won't ride on it with me, she prefers the ultra, not sure why! Lol

The only collector I can think of that I really admire is Jay Leno. He actually rides his bikes and drives his cars. Too many collectors just collect and don't ride. Seems a shame to have those fantastic bikes and not ride them. Too much like having Rembrandt's and DaVinci's works and storing them in a blacked-out vault so they are safe.

Bikes/cars are meant to be ridden/driven!!

But I could see owning a F4U Corsair and never flying it. LOL Somebody would have to, but not me!!

my favorite war birds.. F4U and P38...

Mine are the P-51 and P-38. I still remember the P-38 firepower demo that they did after the end of WWII just east of Great Falls, MT. They had the center fuselage with stub wings. The demo was a something with the 50's and tracers plus the 20mm cannon. Very noisy! We drove down from Havre to see the demo.

Being that close to Wisconsin I'm sure you've made it up to the Oshkosh EAA fly-in. The number of warbirds that come in is just amazing.
