Track - dunno, I'm a street rider... maybe I'd just set up a hotrodded Triumph Thruxton for the track, or build a Manx Norton-style air-cooled sporting single
Everyday, Round Town - Street Ride - caféd Triumph Bonneville
Sport Ride (Street Poseur) - Ducati SportClassic 1000
Casual Short/Medium-Distance Tour - '09 fuel-injected Triumph Bonneville
Light ADV Tour/Really Long-Distance Tour - Suzuki V-Strom 650, modded for comfort and so it's not quite so fugly
Serious ADV Tour - not sure, I'd probably custom-build something along the lines of this incredible repurposed SV650 (read about it here), with skid plate, luggage, and larger windscreen added:
Problem with a BMW GS, KTM Adventure, etc is that they all weigh far too much.
Dual Sport - Husqvarna TE610, Yamaha TW200
Cruiser - none, I don't like cruisers
Dirt - Dirt-only bikes are too limited, especially in Vermont, so I'd get something street-legal -- Husqvarna TE310 or plated KTM 450 EXC or something
Winter - Ural Gear-Up with engine work to make it reliable
Vintage - Vincent Black Shadow or Black Lightning, Manx Norton, Norton Commando (probably the Fastback)

Just one bike for me:
![]()
I have simple tastes.
2 track bikes
a 650R and a 848, both totally tricked with track accessories
Street Bike. 2006 MV Agusta F4CC
Long Distance Cruiser
Harley Wide Glide
No need for as Big Bagger, The wife would get her own bike to play on
A 636 to make a stunt bike just because
1967 Model Human, All male accessories. Manufactured by John & Irene
RC8R, MV Agusta Veltro (far superior to the CC) and Vyrus
Adobe Certified Expert, Photoshop CS4
Adobe Certified Professional, Flash CS4
Track - 1125R with all the goodies from Buell Racing.
Street - Tagged and titled CRF450R motard with mag wheels, fully built up but street legal.
Touring and cruising - Screaming Eagle Road Glide.
Pitbike - Pitster Pro X4R motarded out.
For the family - a whole collection of CRF dirtbikes in all sizes.
Color me lucky, but I like my current stable quite perfectly.
Street: KTM 690SMC
Track: Motard (though maybe Id make it green)
2004 ZX-6R (for the bigger tracks)
Then a dirty kind of toy and a sled for winter use.
I'd buy some land with a house ( party house ) in remote area and built my own small track. Nothing too fancy, just pretty much paved track layout road in the middle of big grass field. Then buy a few bikes so my buddies and I could chill on weekendsOh, and also, I'd buy a few hot asian girls so they could take care of my guests
Edit: I think I need to learn how to play loterry ( never really played ) and go buy some tickets![]()

I'd love to add an:
Supermoto....................Aprilia SXV 550 or KTM 690 SMC

Retro...........................Triumph Thruxton or Ducati Sport Classic
Dirt bike(plate)...............Honda CRF250X
I'd also like to make sure that I have all sorts of different engine configs: 1 inline 4, 1 triple, parallel twin, V Twins (air/liquid cooled), and a thumper.
If I could do it all over:
Sport / Trackday..........Ducati 848
HyperSport Touring.......BMW K1200S (this barely stays)

There is a guy down at the THe Snake (US 421 TN) that rides a Norton like that but green. He fuckin tears it up. It's kinda scary to watch with the skinny tires and all but it looks cool as hell.
I think this Norton is badass
