  • Which other bike you DROOL over

    Starting this thread for some fun.

    So as the the thread title says "Which other bike you DROOL over". Apart from the bike which you own which other bike/bikes you drool over and scan and why and what comes to your mind, like "How I wish <fill in the blanks>" .

            I am inclined to Royal Enfield Electra and or CL350. Somehow I am not fascinated by imported or sports models.

            Getting angry at somebody is the same as getting angry with a bike that just won't go. You should stop and start thinking.

            It is funny to know that we've been imitated and copied so well
            and surprising when we notice our mistakes are copied as well.

              I would like to keep it simple by discussing only about Indian bikes/ bikes which we see everyday on the roads.
              RE classic 350/500: because of its post war era design and the way it moves in style/ attitude when accelerating slowly but in a slight sporty manner. color: black, battle green and desert storm.
              GS150r: For its GSXR inspired looks, well sculpted fuel tank, the way it glides on highways in its 6th OD gear. color: full orange (no longer available) and grey
              CBR150r deluxe: For its sporty looks and the color scheme, again for the way it moves when redlining in each gears.
              I own KTM200 and rx100

              BTW: gyan_recl350 You didn't mention what bikes You drool upon.

                Bikes.. We always drool over one or the other..
                The bike in the indian market I drool over is Duke 390.. I know the price isn't much, but still i'm not in condition to buy one at present..
                As for the international market, there are many.. To name one, BMW s1000rr.. Its a piece of beauty..

                        Re: Which other bike you DROOL over

                        I am more inclined towards the Yamaha R6 (for its sexy appearance and its exhaust note), the Hayabusa for its massive appearance..

                        when it comes to the Indian bikes.. errr.. I actually don't know as none of them are in the list of dream bikes

                        the Ducati Pinagale for everything its got.. especially the price tag.. then comes the bmw 1200 gs adventure..

                          I agree with @nadz11.ns bikes are always drool over thing, even the humble tiny winy TVS XL has drool factor (Yes I drool over it when I see the grocery store guys loading it to the extent only handle and head is seen)

                          But when it comes to personal choice, at this moment in my life I only and only Drool over ALL Royal Enfields (slightly less inclined towards TBTS) and especially old Enfields and their musical exhaust note. Though I own RE Classic350 but I literally drool over all, even in the heaviest of the heavy traffic I do not like to miss a chance to catch a glimpse of any Enfield passing by even a similar looking Classic as of mine. Have chased down few Enfields whose exhaust note just mesmerized me.

                          Reasons: I don't know. I am totally in love with Enfields (but I do respect all bikes as I said even the humblest TVS Xl). I find the road presence to be very prominent and look damn sexy. I truly feel Enfields are among the top 3 most good looking bikes in India and the Classic has taken that to one level up (especially without Pillion seat )

                          I wish: How I wish, I could own them all. I wish to add one 500cc new Bullet and one really Old Cast Iron Enfield from 60s or 70s and the upcoming cafe racer as well and some more . Bas itna sa quab hai

                          Duke 390 is other bike which I do not drool over but have got a place in my heart for sheer speed and power. I do not care about any other super-bikes which is not already present in India.
