Dream bikes, top 5 only. This was actually kinda tough, a lot of good bikes didn't make the cut. I surprised myself when no HDs made the list, and no EVs.
1. Triumph Scrambler 2006 - 2016
I've wanted one of these since they first came out. The perfect bike, looks great, you can cruise on it, commute on it, bash through the bush, and it has enough pep for the twisty fun roads. Strong aftermarket bolt-on doodad community.
2. Anything by Deus ex Machina
Everything they make is gold. I'd take any of their builds. Even a TW.
A Deus Ex W650 would cross two off this list.
3. Kawasaki W650 1999 -2007
Great looking bike and motor. Looks authentic retro even up close, without the oil leaks. Excellent starting point for a cafe racer, bobber, street tracker, and a thousand other builds.
4. Ural Patrol 2WD
2WD, retro, Russian, sidecar.
I mean...
5. Triumph Bonneville Bobber 2020
New one added to the list this year.
Would answer my love for both trumpies and bobbers.
Honorable mentions:
HD Crossbones
HD Sportster
Triumph Speedmaster
All EV bikes
Royal Enfield Bullet 500
Honda Shadow 1100 ACE. I already owned this bike, but feel like we have unfinished business.
Post your list here! Include pics!
