OK so we all like trikes here, but what else if anything do you ride.
My daily ride is an evo 1990 FXST. not much left of the original bike as ive fitted a 96ci S&S motor and a Baker 5 speed. The Baker is a beautiful box.

Also Just finished putting together a 1970 ironhead chopper. Still got a few small issues to sort out ,but it was a great feeling to blast down the road on it. not really a practical thing to ride any distance, but it puts a smile on my face. kickstart only is taking a bit of getting used to. and so is the right hand gear change.. its all fun
 
I've got my first Harley, a 1987 FLST that I still love to ride.

I did a rebuild on the top end in 2004, and added 10.5:1 pistons, Andrews EV13 cam, to the existing Crane Hi4 Single Fire and Mikuni HSR42 carb. I upgraded the charging system to 3 phase 40 amp, replacing the woefully inadequate original system. I love this bike...reminds me of what a Harley used to feel like...
 
I have a Kaw, 6n, Bought it new a few years ago as a back up bike, While my previous Trike was constantly breaking down, Put 2 thousand miles on it, Then about a year and a half ago i Got a Tri-Glide and i haven't ridden the 6n since.
 
My 2-wheel ride is a 1990 FLHS, aka Electraglide Sport. It is the immediate precursor to the Road King. It is going to be classed as an antique in 2 years when it turns 25, and is mostly back to stock. Had the motor sent to the HD remanufacturing program at about 90,000 miles. It has been, and continues to ba a great ride, and it's been paid for these last 20 years.
 
Two trikes and a 2007 Stratoliner-I put most of my miles on two wheels, but see that changing over the next few year.poof


I was just waiting for ABA to say something like "my sexy love chunk in the avatar"!! I cant believe you didn't seize the opportunity. +1 rep point
 
As my signature states, I also ride a '04 BMW K1200GT which I use back and forth to work or other short trips of 2 hours or less.
 
Besides the 2010 Gold Wing 1800 Motor Trike IRS, there's a 1996 Jeep Cherokee, 1993 Jeep Cherokee, a 2011 Honda PCX125 Scooter, and a 2012 Honda "Blacked Out" Phantom 750 Cruiser.............................."right now"................pepper ThumbUp
