Motorcycles,Cars and Bronies!

[Rocco 567]

I have a Honda CBF125, I live in the UK so I'm limited to 125cc until I do my "full" test, which will cost me around £850 per attempt :/

I would like a Ducati Multistrada or Monster, or a BMW touring bike, I'm more a fan of the touring style than the racing one.

lawl! you like naked bikes! me too.....  seriously though, that multistrada is sex on asphalt!  and a monster is easily come by here in the states, idk about in the uk though. sport touring bikes are awesome man, im a huge fan my self, in fact my dream bike for a while was a aprilia 750 shiver and i still want one!

New bikes are easy to come by here in the UK, it's the used bike market that is bad, bikes are not a very common sight due to our generally poor bike riding weather and roads

 

My CBF is an 09 plate, used, it cost me around £2500 which I would have to guess is considerably more than it would cost in the states :/

 

Touring bikes are definitely the best looking bikes but if I loved in the states I would like to have a Harley Davidson too

 

My friend recently bought one of these, needless to say, I am very jealous.

Your helmet looks cool, the entire reason I bought my bike was purely because I needed a new helmet, I went into the bike shop to buy a new one and ended up buying both a bike and a matching helmet XD

Nice work, sounds great. My first car was a 04 GT I really miss it actually. The guy I sold it to totalled it three weeks after he got it when he hit a deer.

Thats kinda ironic because before i got the gt i had a 04 wrangler with a 6" short arm lift, dana 44 swap rear with 3.73 gears and eaton locker, 35" tires smittybuilt bumpers front and rear , warn 11k winch, sye elim, tatton 6"slip shaft with double cardon joints....loved that rig!!!!!! Trade for my gt and the dude rolled it at royal blue orv park, completely totaled it! It tolled down a 60 foot drop off the back trail. One day i will has another wrangler!

I'll probably never trade a vehicle again with the fear of having one of my favorite car turned into scrap and all the work down the drain. Your setup on your Jeep sounds BA, any pics?

[Rolls Royce 606]

This is my baby, and only car at the moment, a 2000 Ford Ranger with 194,000 miles on it.  My dad bought this in 2002, and a large part of my childhood was spent in this truck.  I learned how to drive in this truck, and I even got my drivers license in it, and it became mine on that day, April 12, 2010  To me, it's part of the family, and I love driving it, it's very reliable.  I plan on buying a second car once I have a job, a 1998 Cadillac DeVille, and hopefully some classics once I finish college, like a 1964 Ford Galaxie for example.  My plan for this truck is to drive it until it dies, I want to see how far it will go.  I also plan on entering it in classic car shows in 20 or so years as an un-restored survivor vehicle.  I'm still amazed it looks this good after how much it's been driven.

This picture of the interior was taken at 193,000 miles, it still looks just as good.

^ That is a pristine example of pure Ford awesomeness. You should shoot for 1,000,000 miles and maybe Ford will give you a free one for being such a resposible customer.

I imagine it's able to do 1 million miles, but right now, I'm shooting for 200,000 :3.  I've seen Rangers from 1986 with over 600,000 miles on them, so I don't see why this one won't be able to do that.  I also just found something posted in 2011, someone's 1990 Ranger had 993,725 miles on it, now I really want to shoot for a million.  I love this truck so much, and I'll never be able to part with it.

As long as you keep up with maintenance and don't drive it in the winter, you know the whole salt = rust equation. I think that if you follow those guidelines you could make 1 million.

[Rocco 567]

See now thats a good truck! Those little rangers live foreven and look awesome on 18" saleen 5 spoke wheels and the correct tire size! I jave wanted to pick one of those up for ever now and do a 4.6 2v swap and make a little sleeper pick up.

 

 

I do have pics of the jeep and will post them tomorrow when im back on my comp, i dont have any pics with the 35" on her but i have pleant of "action" pics.

[MotoBrony 77]

I neglected to mention my other ride; This 1997 Polaris Scrambler 500 H.O. This is the fun one.

A 498cc Single overhead Cam single cylinder, 4 valve engine that produces 32 horsepower. Select-able 4 wheel or two wheel drive, CV Transmission. Fox Racing suspension all around. 

She may not be a looker, she may be old, but she runs with the best of them. 

 

[Yamato 1,348]

Well allow me to be the first to inject some Chevrolet into the discussion. I've got a 1999 Chevy S10 pick-em-up truck with the 4.3L (262 cu. in.) V6 pumpin' out about 190 hp. It may not be terribly fast, but it makes a wonderful noise.

 

She's in marvelous shape, no problems with her other than two screwy gauges and a missing treble adjustment knob on the stereo. Someday hope to drop a 350 in 'er, but I have neither the funds nor the time for that at the moment. Here are some older pics of 'er. She actually has a different plate on her now, and new tires, too (those Primewells, while friendly for the wallet, were absolute shit).

 

 

 

Now, as for what I someday wish to own...

 

 

1960 Lincoln Continental. Preferably with the 462 V8. Style before speed, man...

[Chevette 1,052]

I may not have any Motorcycles, but I do have my share of vehicles.

I am the proud owner of a 1982 Chevrolet Silverado, a 2006 Pontiac GTO 6.0 Liter LS2, and a 2008 Chevrolet Cobalt SS 2.0 Liter Turbocharged I4.

 

Some may be like "Odd choices there buddy." and others may be like "Well shit, that's groovy pops." Lets just say I have a "different" kind of taste in automobiles.

 

I do have pictures of these little fellas, they do look quite sharp and they are all pretty rare/unique. By that, I mean it's not something you see a lot of versus a Camaro or a Civic. (No offence to ya'll Camaro and Civic owners).

 

 

Here's my first lil' buddy. This puppy is a 1982 Chevrolet Silverado. She's packin' a 350 cubic inch 5.7 liter Chevy small-block V8. It's got a four-barrel double pump Edelbrock carburetor, true duel exhaust with Flowmaster mufflers and some radical polished aluminum American Racing wheels. I do also have a set of Mickey Thompson street slicks for this truck too. 

As for the condition you ask? Well it's about as good as new my friends. This truck has a re-finished interior that matches original Chevrolet equipment and the exterior does the same minus the cowl hood.

This truck has a new crate motor, but the original odometer clocks at 86,000 miles. I'm the 3rd owner of this truck and still have the original sticker from when it was sold back in 1982. I also have other original paperwork on this truck.

It may be a truck, but it's got some speed to boot.

 

 

Here's my next lil' fella. This puppy is a 2006 Pontiac GTO featuring the 6.0 Liter LS2 V8 Corvette engine. She's got the six-speed manual transmission and about 420 horsepower to boot. 

I may not have anything done to this one, but I don't intend to screw up the looks of the vehicle by cheapening it with shit like blacking out my wheels and other nimby crap. 

The condition of this vehicle is in perfect if not immaculate condition. I spend a lot of time on cleaning my vehicles so I expect nothing but the best that can be done.

I got this GTO with only 25,000 miles on it and it only has 27,000 now. She's got the K&N air intake and some groovy floor mats that match the GTO badge.

It's pretty fast, I have gotten it to 140mph easy and she's got much more where that came from. I actually have a picture of my speedometer at that speed too, yeah, i'm fuckin stupid to grab my phone and snap a picture at that speed but I did.

 

 

My next lil' buddy. A 2006 Chevrolet Cobalt SS Turbocharged 2.0 Liter I4. This puppy gets on it when it comes to speed for a little four banger. This is my "newest" purchase. Like I said, when I'm car shoppin' I look outside the box. I bought this one for decent gas mileage. It gets about 38MPG on the highway, pretty damn good for a sports car with a turbo. But yeah, it'll move out, she does 120mph easy with more to boot. 

It's got red/black GM Performance interior seats and one of those cute lil' boost gauges. Pretty awesome. Pioneer audio system with one of those big speaker thingies in the trunk, 18 inch wheels, and a groovy sunroof.

 

 

These are just all the cars I still own. Before these cars I had a 2008 Cadillac CTS with the 3.8 Liter Direct Injection V6 and a 2010 Chevrolet SIlverado LS. Yep, big GM guy over here.

If I even said how old I was this would be even more unbelievable.... Only 18. Just pretty damn lucky that I could locate vehicles like this.

I got pictures of them too, but I don't feel like going through my photobucket that far back. If you are interested in seeing more pictures of any of my vehicles, I do have a DeviantArt account with more pictures n' stuff there.

So, I'm looking at your posts and you guys have such nice cars and motorbikes! As form me, the only time I tried to drive a motor scooter (50 cc, 3 cubic inches), I hit a trash bin at the incredible speed of 10 km/h (6 mph). The only thing damaged in that crash was my self-esteem...

Apart from that, I do have a car. It's a grey 2005 FIAT Panda 4WD, 1250 cc (76 cubic inches), straight-4 petrol engine.

Those are not the actual photos of my car, but it's just like that.

Yeah, I know that maybe this thread was made for hot rods, supercars and what not, but I just wanted to tell you that I'm pretty happy with this 3.500 € (4.600 US$) baby which can't go faster than 130 Km/h (81 mph). Oh, and it can make up to 15 km/l (35 mpg)...

[sunset_sprint 190]

I'm moving to Pittsburgh this weekend and I was wondering if any one new of a place that would help me with my RX7 in terms of storage and assistance with putting it back together.

[Overlord Ocho 2]

This is my 2007 Mustang GT/CS. She was named Trixie by Lucid.

 

 

 

 

She is pretty slow and pretty quiet...

 

My favorite part of my car is that she has adopted Trixie's attitude. 

 

I find myself constantly asking her, "Are you gonna be a good witch or bad witch today?"

[Rocco 567]

[jayyeah977 0]

I recently bought myself a Kawasaki ZXR250C, but I haven't had a chance to ride her, she's not been looked after at all by previous owners :/

 

I'll post some photo's of her when I put her racing fairing back on and it runs properly :3

[Twilight Circuits 603]

Well... it's actually kinda awesome to talk some fellow lovers of the chariots of our Gods... Although i'm no biker rolling around like a cage'r in my iron steed, I do have a 2005 Derby Bullet for hot sunny days.

Taken from another thread: 97 Mustang GT

2001 Cobra Engine, BBk shorty headers, Summit Racing H-Pipe, Flowmaster 40's, 4:10 rear end, B&M short shifter, MSD Ignition, 2001 Cobra seats, H&R Super Sport Springs, Bilstein HD shocks and struts, 93 Octane tuned, 18 inchc Chrome Cobra R rims with Summito tires (grip like crazy),  importantly alarmed and a nice... stock purple paint (my fav color)

 

I have 3" keychain plush versions of Fluttershy and Twilight on the front dash suction cupped to the windshield "IF you know what i mean..." Although I have 6" plushes of the main six altogether was thinking of putting them on the rear dash.

 

My other vehicle is a 2011 Ram SLT 4x4 QC I use for work.

Man... stories like that break my heart. A lot kids these days simply don't know how to drive or don't know what it means to earn something and driving it. The pain of fixing something cause you can afford the part and install yourself but not the shop rate or the time is sometimes what it's all about.
Hell, my stang gave me no problem until one morning alternator didn't work. Still... easy change... but sometimes it's hard to comprehend that most people barely have the knowledge about the vehicle they drive or it's capabilities. 

[Jon the VGNerd 887]

 

'tis an old friend of mine, known as Blue Brute (since he is a stallion in his SUV form), back in my younger years. And no, he was not a junker on wheels, but rather, he has aged considerably, both inside and out, as I grew older. Despite his rather big, hulking strength, he's nearly come to the point where his passing's slowly, but surely, nearing in... I cared about him so, near and dear. It'd be sad to see him go, but, at least his heart will still live on.

[Lucky Bolt 35,097]

Here’s a picture of my ride. 1996 Dodge Ram 1500 with the 5.2 and 2wd. 

Spoiler

It might not be as cool as a motorcycle or a fast car, but it gets me where I wanna go and definitely turns heads.  I wouldn’t trade it for anything in the world.
