My next bike will probably be an FZ1 or Bandit 1200/1250. I'm getting old, and they seem to fit my style. I also tend to keep my bikes for quite a while- I bought my 636 brand new in November 20003.

Hmm, hope to eventually pick up a cheap track bike, as well as a dirt bike (or maybe more of a true dual sport).
If I won a shit ton of money... I'd pick up a cheap track bike, as well as a dirt bike (or maybe more of a true dual sport). I'd then spend extra money on track riding and dirt riding classes. |

My next realistic purchase?
Maybe another dirtbike DREAM purchases? All 2010 models (hey I've got $500k right? ) S1000RR track only RMZ450 Motard track only RMZ450 Dirt KTM ADV 990 Street (with alaska survival package to keep up with Tracy) With the remaining $450k I'd buy a dually from hell with a 5th wheel castle for track days

Lately I've been lusting after the idea of hot rodding an old touring rig ala:
However, since I haven't even begun hacking into the Tiller, it's probably going to remain a pipe dream... My next bike purchase will prolly be a little sportbike for the Mrs... 250 Ninja or the like... If I hit the lottery tomorrow, Ducati would be making some money off of me... Streetfighter or the new Diavel, and a track dedicated 848 would probably be in my garage... |

It's hard to think about my "next" bike given that I don't have 200 miles on mine. But my next purchase will probably be a BMW sport tourer. Many years down the road.
As for post lottery, either an S1000RR or 1198.
