..your choice be were there to be 3 bikes you could have in your garage?

Any era, style or engine config.



For me I would go for an

RD125LC (white and red colour scheme, old school stan stephens tune)
KR1s
and a Mille SP

Vincent Black Shadow

MV Agusta F4

Rob North Trident


That's the garage .... but in the shed I'd obviously have my Falco, an RSV4 Factory, and probably a few others too ..........

Think I'd be quite happy with the two I have now, plus I would have to have classic or two like a DBD34 Clubman Goldie or even a Paul Dunstall Dominator SS like I had many years ago, then there would have to be a Black Shadow, then there's more modern stuff like the MV 1000F4.

Yeh, I forgot the shed, would need to build one to allow me to add at least one stroker to my list :smt017
KH350, RD350LC , Kettle, sorry but this is getting too hard, I'd just have to have a lot more than three bikes. :smt009

erm

quite happy with just my falco actually....

Maybe a second falco for full on sports setting, or for touring.... both fettled differently
oh - and maybe a katana 1100.....


Let's face it, you wouldn't go to a nurse to get good advice on a problem with a Falco - you'd choose an Engineer or a mechanic...

Falco for the road.

Mille for the track (factory of course)

And a couple of scooters to take with us when we go abroad.

And something elderly as a 'project'.
