A Man Needs Four Bikes....

[ridingfar]

One to go fast on...

One to go far on...

One to play with in the dirt...

And one to cruise around on lazy afternoons....

I'm half way there....

Thats my story (to the wife) and I'm stickin' to it...

[blueridgerider]

Or, you could just get a GS.

[Liquidsilver]

ridingfar, let me know if you need help selling that to the wife.  
 
 

[Rogue]

I just need three:

Sportbike.
Sport-touring Bike.
Cafe Racer/Street Fighter.

[axelwik]

I wouldn't have enough time to ride four. Three is my max and right now I'm down to two.

[Justin]

Well, mine does 3 of those, the playing in the dirt, not so much   - Although I certainly try!

[bljakkl]

So........how many does a woman need?

[X1Glider]

Just one.

same here. Shopping for #3 as we speak.

[sprk_sprd]

Shopping for #3 as well.  But I'm hoping/thinking that 3 will be enough.

[mugwump58]

I could make 4 work. Send your donations. Think of the children.

[wibornz]

I had four Kaws all at one time.

KLR650
Versys 650
Ninja 650r
Concours 14

I had them all covered.  

[falconati]

And a Velosolex

[Prozac]

So........how many does a woman need?

As many as it takes to make her happy!  That way I get all the bikes I want and she can't say anything!   ain't it a crazy thing!  Oh, and I will soon have the two I need: '06 Vulcan 1600 Classic for us and soon new to me '06 Buell Ulysses for me.

[mjrfd99]

At least 4.     Gotta have a classic or 2 also

[AutoXer]

So........how many does a woman need?

Just one.  But she needs 12 different pairs of boots in various colors and heels, 6 different jackets so she never has to wear the same one more than once a week, at least as many helmets in various styles and colors and pairs of pants (all of which she requires make her look 10 pounds thinner and make her butt look good), 18 different courier bags to accessorize her outfit ...

Ridingfar I may have to disagree with you on one small item, the number, I'm filling in the gaps of the 4 a little, and on a side note my wife must love me because she plain doesn't care (and if she did I just take a picture of her walk in closet and send it to her before I need to go get another bike and the picture speaks for itself LOL!!) how many are in the garage as long as she didn't have to pay for them and she can get her car in the garage. And I like your way of thinking just keep rolling with it

Triumph Sprint ST
Aprilia Falco
Suzuki Katana
Ducati Monster
Aprilia RXV 450
Kawasaki Vulcan 1500
Yamaha WR426
Husqvarna TE511
Kawasaki KFX Quad

And the connie is coming soon

oh yea and my wife has 1 her Honda Shadow

[black hills]

or:


Since I got this I find myself riding the CBR and the 300XC-w less and less

[Windblown]

I have four. But I need to shift the mix a bit.

Having a classic or two should not count against ones 4 bike limit though I think, don't you?

[SummerLove]

I could buy that..
I want:
Futura/Multistrada/Something like that daily rider
Street Triple R/Streetfighter 848/Tuono as trackday/fun mountain bike
DRZ400/SVX with dirty wheels and street wheels
R1xxxRT/Norge/ST1xxx  as the loaner bike/mile muncher

I agree.
Wife don't.
But I never listen to her foolishness

I concur

[karlfitt]

Four?

Personally I think Jay Leno has a real good start on a garage.

[Dan K]

4 bikes -

1. Track bike
2. ST bike for commute and longer trips
3. Street fighter or naked type for local hooning
4. Classic or retro bike like an old cafe racer or a Thruxton.

My Daytona 675 serves as 1 and 3, Sprint as 2.  Would prefer a K1300S for 2 (and occasional 3).

[Rincewind]

I would take four of one kind, as long as it's the right kind.  Four naked roadsters would be the cat's meow!  

But really I'm just tickled to have two, even if one is my wife's mini-chopper - it's still fun!  

[TwoWhldTerror]

I am fine with three....I have combined the fast/far one in the form of an FJR. I want a cruiser (brand irrelevant) and the GS, that would complete my stable!

Same here- the B12 for touring/ go relatively fast, the XR650 for the dirt/street, and the Tracker for the lazy day rides (which turn out to be not so lazy   ).

Since I don't do lazy cruising at all, I just need to talk my wife into a dirt bike. With the bike I already have, that will cover it all for me. WE will see how that works out.
