52 bikes later... AMEN Brother! Well said! Just keep me away from Craigslist.

Ahhhh some great shots and great bikes!! I think "fleet" begins at 2- so post them up!

Mark- the Moto Morinni 3&1/2 is so cool!! You do have a wide breadth in your collection!

Smokin- I dream about having that kind of space!! If I did, I think my bike count would head north!

Rotortech- the paint on the tail of your S3 is interesting looking- what's that all about?

Youz guys have way cool stuff, you come to my house we will ride my bikes and then we will go you your house and ride yours, deal?

Battleaxe- you mean a garage tour??? We do that a couple times a year here- ride in mass from garage to garage looking at everyone's space and fleet! Trading rides on bikes is a part of the deal... tons of fun!

Ive had a lot of neat stuff come through here as well, but am now down to the two Denco bikes, the recently aquired DL650, a plated KDX200 woods/trail bike, VTR1000 Superhawk, and a small handful of Triple-based parts/project bikes in various states.

At one point I thought, "the more the better", but keeping up with maintenance on over 10 Rideable motorcycles, starts to wear me out. You end up pushing one to the corner that needs a bit of work and grabbing one that doesn't. Then, that bike needs some work, and IT gets pushed to the corner. Before you know it, you have 5 bikes that need something done, and it becomes ACTUAL (not fun) work.. :lol:

the current fleet....
