Default The Pun needs a bike... Help
I had a 98 TL1000R back in the day but starting to think of getting another bike. It was my first bike and was way overkill.

Not sure what to get but l would like it for tooling around town and cruisin. Not sure if I wanta go sport or cruiser, but I am not a good enough rider to have something really fast but I love power...

It must sound cool, look cool, and get me street cred like the SRT8 does..

Wut u think?

So the new bike you just bought doesn't fit the bill eh?

What's your budget?

The Pun!!!! how you been??? long time no talk. Hope all is well!


Back on topic, I just saw a 1993 Harley electraglide ultra classic loaded to the brim with chrome, radio, etc. with 24k miles. Real nice looking, gray. Not sure asking price but am thinking somewhere around $6k. As far is riding long distance, that thing looked rather comfy.

But as Jeremy stated, how much you looking to spend?

LOL around 10k or so...

Not much or a Harley guy... Maybe a Jap cruiser or big sport bike.

I can't do a starter bike cause I got ego issues so I need something gangstar...

The closest thing to a TL800R (from suzuki) is an sv1000s, which you can buy brand new in your price range.

A busa comes to mind but then you might start riding Jimbo style...

Out of the real manly macho sportbikes, the zx-14 or the busa are going to be the most comfy yet super fast and agile.

The all white was an anniversary edition, if I recall correctly.
