pattonme Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 Aprilia RSV4 1100 Factory. $14,500 + tax. What to do... Rode one last Sat. Holy schnikees the power! and yet it's a total pussy cat if you want it to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yamahaha Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 I would love a FZ-07 sportbike with the same ergonomics of the R3 and great suspension. That would be the perfect bike for me. That powerplant deserves to be in a sportbike chassis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dreadykrueger Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 I don't have a holy grail motorcycle exactly. It's more of a holy grail garage. FZ-10 for street/touring, convert my FZ-07 to a stunt bike, and a street legal dirt bike like a KTM 500exc or Beta 500 rr-s 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bugeyes Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 Sometimes I miss my Bandit 1200 with it's carbs and no ECU, was nice to be able to tune and service myself. Was a great bike even though on the heavy side, wish my MT-07 could transform itself to it on the open roads at higher speeds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks pretty bad-ass (IMO) and it kinda reminds me of the Harley Michael Pare (AKA, Tom Cody) rode in the movie, "Streets of Fire". when he was tearing up "the battery'. Love that movie, btw, I highly recommend it. Good motorcycle/greaser movie. They call it a rock -n- roll fable. Beemer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They call it a rock -n- roll fable.Well heck Beemer, this forum took on a whole new perspective for me when somebody mentions one of my favorite cult classic movies... "Streets of Fire"! Now that is what I call a great movie!!! I'm not even going to bring up a young Diane Lane in the movie. Trivia fact... The director of that movie, Walter Hill, was also the director for another cult classic "The Warriors" This video is a good indication of what the movie is like - great music too: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then again, they shouldn't scoff at anyone else's bike. after all, they are riding Harleys. Why can't left turners see us? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beemer Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 2wheeler - Yes, yes, nice video clip and smokin' Diane (legs) Lane represents the movie well! At 1:55 in this clip it shows Tom Cody sitting on the bobber (stolen, ha!) that I was talking about.

Guest 2wheeler Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 I'm getting closer to getting my Holy Grail bike. As I said in my OP, I have never seen a 1973 Yamaha LT3 MX other than in print. Well.... this last weekend a buddy of mine was at a vintage motorcycle show, and there in all it's glory was my Holy Grail bike. My buddy is a good friend who knows of my deep seeded desire for this bike, so he called and took pics. He never found the owner, but I now have a name and location for a potential future purchase. The guy had several pristine bikes in the show so for me to buy this, I'll need to make him a offer he can't refuse. Time to win a small lottery to justify the amount he would likely and reluctantly take for the Yamaha. Yeah, this is a total obsession thing for me that has been going on over 40 years, but what the heck, a Holy Grail bike should be like that IMHO. Here's a pic from that show: site for uploading photos 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Evill_Ed Posted February 17, 2017 Premium Member Share Posted February 17, 2017 My Holy Grail bike still is the Suzuki RG500 Gamma. I wish I never sold this bike. I want to get another one some day. These are definitely cool bikes.
